Management Committee Skills

We support new or existing voluntary management committees in:

• Working more effectively as a committee
• Identifying training and development needs
• Putting in place the best organisational structure for your group
• Clarifying roles & responsibilities
• Managing change and finding new solutions
• Getting your newly elected committee organised

Management Committee Skills
Ardoyne Women’s Group’s new voluntary management committee asked us to support them in working more effectively as a new committee. The training helped build commitment within the group and the production of a three-year strategic plan.

Belfast Exposed asked us for help with managing a change process; they wanted to restructure their management and become more professional. We facilitated development sessions with staff, volunteers and management committee, leading to the recruitment of a manager and the development of a more facilitative approach in working with user groups.

The Black Youth Network asked us to meet with their members to discuss the process of establishing a voluntary management committee and to raise awareness of roles and responsibilities and support available for committees.
