ESNZ volunteer survey for committee position holders

This survey is for officials, Organising or Area Committee members, other committee position holders and those who coordinate ESNZ volunteers. Note there is another survey for volunteers who do not hold official positions with ESNZ but is likely to be equally relevant to you 'wearing a different hat'. It is called Volunteer Survey - Equestrian Sports New Zealand. Please respond to both surveys if relevant.

Without our volunteers our sport would not be able to achieve all it currently does. We want to better understand the experience of ESNZ volunteers and who they are in order to improve the attraction, induction, retention, recognition and succession planning for our invaluable volunteer workforce. Thank you for taking the time and for sharing your thoughts and experience with us.
