Human Resources for Nonprofits – The First 90 Days: Job Descriptions to Onboarding to Policies
part 1 of a 3 part series
Kelly Collins, Director of Human Resources at EveryMind, and Officer at Maryland SHRM State Council

Employees choose to work for organizations where they can showcase their talent working with a mission for which they are truly passionate. In non-profit organizations, this is particularly true.

Employers have a great opportunity at each stage of the employee lifecycle to engage their human capital in a positive workplace culture that becomes a great environment for innovation, productivity and excellence. From the time a position is posted to the point at which the employee exits your organization, Human Resources has a tremendous impact on creating and sustaining that desirable culture.
