The Greater Good of Blogging

In the next couple of weeks this blog will launch a diverse snapshot of topics from across the field of volunteer management. Hot topics, burning issues, scorching successes…we’ve learned from them all.

Blogging is not only an enjoyable conversation among peers, but also an excellent tool for sharing knowledge and adding value to each other’s work. Professional development built around a community of practice gives us the opportunity to advance further than any one person could go by themselves.

Whether reading this blog, commenting, or submitting a guest post you’re in the process of exchanging knowledge for the greater good of our volunteer management community.

Check out this blog post from Michele Martin on blogging for learning. She discusses key points like focusing on the process, adding value, and forming a learning community. She encourages people to share mistakes as well as successes for an optimum learning experience.
