According to organizers, Betsy McFarland, principal at Adisa and an expert in volunteer engagement, will lead the workshop. McFarland launched and led the National Volunteer Center at the Humane Society of the United States. With more than 18 years of experience, she has helped organizations integrate volunteer strategies into their broader goals.

During the workshop, participants will explore proactive strategies for mitigating conflicts and maintaining harmony, techniques for recognizing and addressing issues before they escalate, practical exercises and case studies for leading courageous conversations, and gain insights into creating an atmosphere that supports open communication and respect.

“This workshop offers invaluable insights for navigating the complexities of volunteer leadership,” said Wendy Stebbins, County Volunteer Center Coordinator. “It’s a unique opportunity for nonprofit leaders in Maui County to strengthen their skills, create thriving teams and ultimately amplify their impact in the community.”
