Leader Lunch Break: Leading with Purpose—How Intrinsic Motivation Built Cleveland Kurentovanje

Nicole Kusold-Matheou & Caitlin Peterson Executive Committee Members, Cleveland Kurentovanje Caitlin provided an overview of the Cleveland Kurentovanje's history and mission, emphasizing its volunteer-driven nature and the significance of the Kurent figure in symbolizing seasonal change. The annual festival will take place this year on February 14, with a variety of events planned, including a 5K run, a parade, and cultural demonstrations aimed at promoting Slovenian traditions and fostering community spirit. Nicole addressed the challenges faced by the festival's organizing committee, such as volunteer burnout and the complexities of managing a growing event without financial incentives. She highlighted the importance of intrinsic motivation, which encompasses autonomy, mastery, and purpose, in driving volunteer engagement and organizational success. By establishing clear roles and encouraging autonomy within subcommittees, the festival has cultivated a supportive environment that promotes personal growth among volunteers. Caitlin and Nicole underscored the festival's role in enhancing Cleveland's cultural diversity and community cohesion. Recorded from a live Zoom session.
