I agree about effective management of volunteers. But then the managers in such activities/events are also volunteers, as humans they are not perfect. Individuals from these "10 to 20 volunteers" should also take on leadership when they see a gap, instead of just following and looking for instructions from "managers." -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
