Habitat Construction Leadership MAIN MISSION - Insure all volunteers are engaged in a

safe, productive manner. (Volunteers are already inspired and motivated – our

job is not to “ruin” their enthusiasm) FOUR FUNCTIONS :

COACH - demonstrate the proper way to do the assigned task, teach necessary skills, organize the work group.

SAFETY - insure proper procedures are followed and required safety equipment is used.

QUALITY CONTROL - maintain high standards while completing tasks on schedule.

FOSTER TEAMWORK – build team environment; make it fun. (“Please”, “thank you” and “good job” are the magic words)
