    Consequence of Error/Judgement

    Coordination of community educational initiatives requires significant horticultural and educational expertise as well as a high degree of coordination with other staff and/or volunteers. Poor performance will jeopardize the UBC Botanical Garden s high standing in the community. The Garden is supported by a significant cadre of volunteers (FOGs) and considerable outside financial support. Ineffective communication would result in a significant decline in donor and community support to the Garden and therefore its viability. Extensive community support and funding is a crucial element to the operation of the Garden.
