The leaders of an expert or regional group can design or further develop the topics that are of special interest for them.<\/p>\n<p>The DGQ appreciates the voluntary engagement and tries to arrange an attractive framework for this by using targeted measures. A decisive element is the concept of agile voluntary work which is geared to approaches as Scrum, Design Thinking and the work method of the Open Content Community. It generates a framework making it easier for people to cooperate ad hoc regarding certain issues and to coordinate initiatives locally. The participants can cooperate more actively and smoothly than with a central control. They generate practicable results that they can use themselves profitably.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The engagement for an organisation as the DGQ is beneficial, even without extra pay.
