Pros

the kids, national service, social commitments and desire to gain management experience. The opportunity to take on new tasks and work independently. Access to a nation wide network of employees.

Cons

salary as a staff. accountability. Lack of tapping into the potential that the organization has, especially sharing knowledge and experiences. so many tools, but no time designated to use internal tools. There is always an opportunity to learn independently as a site, but sometimes its important to utilize skills, plans, lessons from other sites and apply them locally.
