<p class="MsoNormal">Oregon Heritage is extending nominations for heritage organizations to nominate an outstanding volunteer to be recognized at the state level. This is a non-competitive category with one nomination allowed from each heritage organization.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We know the incredible value of volunteers and how much they contribute to the preservation and promotion of Oregon’s heritage. We certainly saw this in the recent study we did on
<a href="https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/OH/Documents/HertiageValueVolunteers_Summary.pdf">

<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo2">Without volunteers, many heritage organizations would not be able to remain open; and if they were to remain open, their reduced capacity would undermine the quality and levels of
their operations. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo2">Heritage Volunteers across the state contributed over $875,000 in one year.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo2">Volunteers helped promote heritage organizations by bringing visitors, recommending a heritage organizations to friends and family, and sharing organization updates with other community
groups.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We also know how important it is to appreciation these volunteers. Volunteer appreciation opportunities like this are a great way to say thank you, retain volunteers, and attract new ones.
<o:p></o:p></p>

in this exploration is the notion of leadership and followership as fluid roles enacted by individuals across an organization; thus, knowing oneself is essential for enacting effective leadership. Leaders in transition, who are leading a new team, or need
increased effectiveness to face tougher challenges will especially benefit from this course. Participants will investigate how these ideas should help inform current and future practice.
