Recruiting
articulate, creative, high-energy, role models for children, and
slotting them in just the right position are the most important
jobs of a Camp Director. Well-written job descriptions state clearly
the necessary qualifications in terms of personality, commitment,
and character, as well as skills, knowledge, and abilities. Camp
staff agreements inspiring staffers towards excellence are important
in the summer's success. Noble
Merchants of Fun brings welcome expertise to this task.
Staff
training with hands-on learning and clearly stated objectives,
builds the comradeship needed to encourage adoption of the goals
and objectives. Case studies of camp situations have proven effective
and make the training more interesting. Finally, evaluation of
staff performance at the end of the program is the foundation
of wise decisions as to who will be invited back as returning
staff the next year. The Noble
Merchants of Fun Staff Performance Evaluation Matrix defines
and separates qualities, honoring jobs well-done, but defining
repetitive behaviors which distract.
Our
consulting services in this area will bring remarkable and immediate
results.
When
a building project extends into the start of camp, an unexpected
illness occurs, a staff situation requires substantial turnover,
a director quits, or additional help is needed during camp start-up,
Noble Merchants of Fun
can be there in a day or two. The calming effect of having a knowledgeable
camp professional step in, maintains smooth operation and facilitates
easier solution to the problem.
