Fundamentals of Employee Volunteering Programs - Virtual Learning
As employers, we spend a lot of time trying to attract the best employees, make them happy, increase productivity, create a corporate culture and positively present ourselves to the community. As a socially driven business, we also spend the time and resources to develop practices that advance the mission we stand for.
One solution that helps us satisfy all of these objectives–the employee volunteer program. Building a corporate volunteer program that delivers these benefits is not brain surgery, but it takes more than rounding up some employees on a Saturday for Habitat for Humanity.
This Gulf Rowad training course on Fundamentals of Employee Volunteering outlines the benefits, process and common questions around creating an effective corporate volunteer program.
This training course will highlight:
Developing programs that reflect the organization’s mission and values.
Ideas to help staff at all levels to understand the societal impact of business decisions and the role of the organization’s activities to improve the local community.
How to coordinate with other business leaders to integrate volunteering objectives throughout the organization.
How to coordinate with other business leaders to develop and implement appropriate levels of transparency and corporate self-governance.
How to assist management on developing corporate stances on technology usage, environmental policy and human rights.
