Coordination Training
Coordination training is something every new PCS member must receive. To help you decide what is right for you, I have put together some helpful information. Some of it is basic and some of it is advanced, but it will be of value to you as a PCS member.
Coordinating is more than just typing. It is a number of complex tasks that you need to do in order to make a living as a PCS member. These tasks include a number of elements such as: (1) typing and editing of content; (2) testing and making suggestions; (3) scheduling meetings; (4) communicating with others in your group; (5) interviewing candidates; (6) recommending jobs; (7) training others in the PCS program. As you can see, coordinating takes time, effort, and preparation.
Not only will your Coordinating training equip you with the skills and knowledge to do a lot of tasks, but it will give you the knowledge and skills you need to acquire relevant experience in an organized manner. This means you will be able to put together an organization chart of what you have already accomplished in the past.
There are many ways to organize your bookshelf and not all of them are the same. So you need to consider the kind of coordinator you are - either an avid reader or someone who prefers to plan and schedule things rather than reading.
Each group has its own interests and each one has different types of events, events can vary from hobby club to the annual convention. A PCS meeting or convention is typically filled with activities, entertainment, and excitement. An introductory meeting will be geared towards choosing a leader and picking a topic to focus on.
The last thing a coordinator needs to know when they are attending a meeting or training is how to answer the question "what is the first thing I should do?" The first thing they should do is ask themselves what their purpose is. Is it to choose a project or to bring on a new member?
If you are interested in starting a club initiatives you need to find a way to explain how your community education will be beneficial to other people in the area. A good example would be, for example, promoting the arts or helping to foster local businesses.
Once you have selected an organizational structure you need to develop a mission statement that explains why you are organizing. Explain how you will bring people together and how you will get them to share their ideas. Make sure the statement is as specific as possible so that it will be easy for the PCS coordinator to interpret and respond to questions during discussions.
You can tell people to move into positions in a person's area of responsibility, go outside of their job and let someone else do what they were previously assigned to do. Each PCS program requires a certain amount of coordination training and the coordinator needs to know how to build, test, and manage their teams.
Experienced and successful coordinators will learn how to update their team. Communication is very important when a coordinator manages a team. When a coordinator is not communicating effectively with his or her team they will be overwhelmed by the amount of work they need to perform and are unable to stay on top of everything.
Working with others and having consistent communication is important. Working with others is a critical part of any effective job or PCS programs. Coordinators need to understand how to work with others and understand how to bring on new members, how to build teams, how to maintain relationships, and how to coach members.
In summary, PCS coordinator training is very important. It is not enough that you know how to operate a computer. You also need to learn how to run a team and how to manage and lead people to make their dreams come true.
