It is clear that you are (generally) not an organisational talent, a creative mind and a good manager at the same time. The advantage of sharing tasks on the board: you don't need to be! Our tip: Distribute the tasks according to the strengths and interests of all board members - this way you complement the other board members in the best possible way. Here we show you which skills will make you stand out on the board of a sports club.
Enthusiasm abilityDepending on your interests and skills, you choose your niche and focus on the tasks that you enjoy. Whether it's sponsor acquisition, social media or member development - what inspires you also inspires others. And what we are passionate about, we are known to do well - and that is contagious!
motivation, motivation, motivation!Motivation is the key factor - and not just your own. "It's crucial to motivate people. But I can only do that if I'm motivated myself and want to do my voluntary work," explains Jan Thiele. "I'm good at transferring my enthusiasm to others. That's how I manage to motivate people to take on work or support a vision."Motivation is the key factor - and not just your own. "It's crucial to motivate people.

Organising and delegatingIf you are not a talented organiser - no problem! But at least one person on the board should have this skill. After all, regular board meetings need to be scheduled and organised, events planned, goals set and pursued. Without someone to keep an overview, create structures and lead the team, things can get chaotic.
