Then this might be the role for you! We are currently looking for new additions to join our Communities Leadership Team as Project Agents. 

What is the team and what do they do?
As a member of the team, you will be working alongside the Communities Coordinator/Ambassador and will be responsible for supporting the forums and its leaders through leadership and engagement like approving and onboarding new forum leaders, creating icebreakers and games, and helping ensure every user is acknowledged and appreciated.

If accepted, you will be allocated a number of responsibilities depending on your chosen focus. There are currently four focuses available for you to choose from:

Events
• Supporting with planning and delivering seasonal events/discussions such as holidays, Mental Health Awareness Week etc.
• Supporting leaders with planning and delivering community specific events like National Coming Out Day/Tree Planting Day etc.

Engagement
• Supporting the Needs Reply Team by helping ensure every user gets a response

Community Building

• Supporting with ad-hoc tasks and projects specific to individual communities as the need arises

Leadership

• Helping with forum team bonding initiatives such as team meetings and games

Welcoming team

I want to have a different focus / I have another question...

Hi, Tommy,

I wish I had even the slightest impulse to be a leader. If I did, I would absolutely do this. I love this community and support the Mission of Compassion without a doubt.

Love, Patience

I don't know why this popped up on my feed again. I just poked myself and checked, and yup, no impulse to be a leader. I'll let the Universe lead.
