Power of 5 / relational coordinator — lane guide

Mission

Turn relationships into durable organizing capacity — not one-night guilting.

Weekly responsibilities

  1. Train volunteers on conversation structure and boundaries.
  2. Ensure lists move from “names” → dated follow-ups.
  3. Recruit new relational anchors continuously.

Relational standards

  • Consent-based contact; respect “no” and “not now”.
  • Accurate representation of how to get involved — no improvising complex rules.

Coaching pattern (10 minutes in huddle)

  • Name one win and one lesson from the week.
  • Pick one script to practice live for 3 minutes.

Metrics you own

  • Relational touches completed vs target (define conservative targets locally).
  • New volunteer leaders discovered via relationships.
  • Follow-up SLA (e.g., 72-hour close rate).
