The relationship between volunteers and staff has had the attention of both scholars and those who manage volunteer programs for many years. When people work together as teams, at all levels of an organization, agency, or program, efficient and effective services are delivered to clients, patrons, or members. There are three different types of teams: volunteer‐staff teams that make or do things, teams that run things, and teams that recommend things. This chapter gives some idea of how they might be managed effectively. It then explains how management and voluntary leaders can determine the current state of volunteer‐staff relations and then develop strategies to improve the staff‐volunteer work environment to increase productivity. Pearce suggests three causes for the negative tension that can exist between volunteers and staff: professional status, profiting from charity, and management systems. Finally, the chapter presents tips to enhance volunteer‐staff relations.Controlled Vocabulary TermsEmployee relationship management; Volunteers
