February 2019
Program Director, Non-Profit in Duluth:
Pros: Opportunities to create and be creative, flexibility, trust in my work, organization and planning, excellent co-workers, the majority of the members are wonderful people that I truly love interacting with.
Cons: Managing staff. I do enjoy getting to be a leader and train new staff, but it is hard to find qualified staff for the positions open who are dedicated to the job. In the 3 years I've been a manager I could count on one hand the number of times all staff have showed up for their shift without calling in sick or finding a sub, or quitting, ect for a full week. I also feel that while I am spread too thinly and most of us are. When new ideas are created, they are just expected to be added to the already full plates of full time staff and sometimes there is no cross over between the program and the job description. It often just lands on the person who has the least full plate at that time. Sometimes it feels like there is no real vision or direction overall as an organization, but rather just trying to stay afloat with what we have. There is also very little training in how to deal with angry or upset members, it's a skill I've been able to develop over time, but definitely one I got thrown into.
