I've always been interested in organising and planning activities, especially for volunteer organisations. So, does anyone knows of any organisations where volunteers can do such activities like planning events. I know most organisations would want volunteers with leadership experience, and i do not have. Which is why i would like to take these opportunities to gain leadership experience, but if i'm never selected, how do i gain the experience?
It'll be greatly appreciated if you can give any suggestions and help me. Thanks a lot!
The question is how do you play to get selected?
before you lead a team, know how to be a team player.
If u really want to gain such experience, i highly recommand you joining Asiaworks training.

you start off with Basic which is about 4 days of commitment appox 1k+
before you advance off to advance about 5 full days of commitment appox 2k+
before you head off the leadership program which last for a full 3 month appox 1-2k
you can also proceed to mastery level after leadership ( i havent done this one)
I wouldnt want to spoil the fun for you but one thing for sure is that there will be crazy events, you would see your true self, you would be under pressure at many points, there will be leadership roles to be played, you would see your influence level as a person, there will be ups and downs, tears, laughters, friendships being made that last a lifetime,it ain't as easy as one would think, and many more surpises to come.
do note that i do not take any referal fee, etc, i'm just helping others who want to grow and mature as i myself have been though this.
you need to be at least 18 and above to join this course.
volunteers usually are the execution team, not the planning team
