    A New Game Plan For Union Organizing (4) By Harry Kelber
    This is the fourth of eight articles on union organizing.

    THE IDEAL UNION ORGANIZER
    If unions are to grow, they’ll need bigger, better and more successful organizing campaigns. That means they’ll also need a larger pool of well-trained organizers.

    The job of union organizer is the toughest in the labor movement. Yet many unions don’t pay much attention to selecting and training their organizers. They may pick seasoned workers from their own ranks or hire smart college kids, sending them to a weekend course at the AFL-CIO’s Organizing Institute and perhaps a short, follow-up apprenticeship with an organizing campaign.
