Ask Questions And Request Specific Details.
Program Manager, Non-Profit Organization:
Delegate, Delegate, Delegate! You are one member of a team and need to delegate as much as possible so that you can focus on the key issues at hand.
This is not the role for someone who has difficulty in letting others take on tasks. If you are a do-it-my self "er" - eventual burn out is a given. Learn to let go and trust in the competencies of your team around you.
January 2014
Program Manager, Non-Profit Organization:
Flexibility only extends one way-to the employer. Wages are low and no room for improvement in position or wage. No recognition for the work load.
