Management Principles: Staffing

Scenario
You have volunteered to organize a fundraiser for your child’s school
sports team to purchase new uniforms.
For your event to be successful, you are responsible for all aspects of
its management: staffing, planning, organizing, controlling, and leading. The general information known includes:
·
You have a team of 15 volunteers to assist
·
$1,600.00 is the cost to purchase the uniforms
·
A local fire department has offered its picnic
grove for use for free
·
Many local businesses (restaurants, bars, retail
stores, etc.) have committed to donating goods or services to your event
The School Board has requested you submit a formal proposal detailing
each of these aspects and how you will manage/lead the process to completion
before they approve the event.
Directions
Each week you will evaluate and make decisions for one or more of the
functions of management for this event. Incorporating concepts, research,
and the provided general information, you will develop a section of the
proposal for the School Board.

Human
Resource Planning is essential in any organization, even a volunteer one. While you will not be conducting formal
interviews of your team members, you need to have at least a basic
understanding of their job responsibilities, so you can make decisions on where
they will make the biggest impact. For
this section of your proposal, you will present a breakdown of the following:

·
Summarize the groups/teams you envision
needing for your event.
·
How many volunteers may be needed for
each; explain your reasoning.
·
Describe how you plan to communicate
with your team(s), including explanations of:
o
How often you will communicate.
o
What form(s) of communication you will
use.
