The Human Side of Recruitment
Strong recruitment happens one conversation at a time. Learn a practical framework to connect with prospects, tune into their interests, and deliver pitches that inspire action.

Event Overview
Recruitment is more than simply posting online ads. Ultimately, successful recruitment comes down to conversations. What does research tell us about what to “do” and how to “be” during these interactions to effectively inspire others to engage with our organizations?
Through fun and purposeful activities, this session introduces a framework and skills to enhance your recruitment efforts through meaningful conversations. From tuning into your prospect’s interests to designing compelling pitches about your organization, you’ll leave with new perspectives on recruitment and tools you can apply immediately.
Participants will be able to:
- ✓ Adapt and apply effective sales techniques to volunteer recruitment.
- ✓ Develop compelling pitches to attract prospective volunteers.
- ✓ Have more effective conversations to recruit new volunteers.
