A one-day hands-on workshop designed to help you heighten the value and strategic relevance of your employee volunteer program featuring Bea Boccalandro, principal researcher and author of: Mapping Success in Employee Volunteering: The Drivers of Effectiveness for Employee Volunteering and Giving Programs and Fortune 500 Performance.

Many community involvement practitioners have suffered from the nagging feeling that their employee volunteer programs are good but not yet great. However, their attempts at improvement have been hampered by the absence of useful benchmarking information and a guiding management framework capable of predicting success. The Drivers of Effectiveness for Employee Volunteering and Giving Programs and an associated study of Fortune 500 employee volunteer programs can fill that need. With the Drivers of Effectiveness, community involvement managers now have a powerful tool that can help them transform a good volunteer program into a great one. In this one-day workshop, Bea Boccalandro will help participants explore the transformative potential of volunteerism for business and society in the 21st century. She will also help them realize that potential by using the Drivers of Effectiveness to assess their volunteer programs and to map out improvements that will lead to greater social sector and business impact, deeper employee engagement and higher corporate relevance.
