The AI angle

AI can match volunteers to opportunities and automate scheduling. It can send reminders and track hours. But it cannot motivate someone who's having a bad day, resolve conflicts between volunteers, or build the community that makes people want to come back.

What to do about it

• Build your coaching, mentoring, and conflict resolution skills • Learn to design volunteer experiences that feel meaningful and well-organized • Use AI tools to handle scheduling and communication so you can focus on people • Develop skills in program design and impact measurement
