If you're keen to understand how to leverage the learning potential of corporate volunteering assignments, come and join our next discussion forum. Over the 20 years of experience I've had supporting this work, I've lost count of the number of times volunteer participants have said they learnt at least as much through their volunteering engagements as they people they were there to serve learnt from them. That's nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, going to learn as well as to give makes your relationship with the organization you are working with much more equable. When there is so much learning potential to be offered through these engagements, it's important to understand how best to nurture and harvest it. This is a safe space to share experiences with other Corporate Volunteering colleagues and learn how to do things even better.
How can corporate volunteering initiatives be not only meaningful opportunities for employees to support the work of nonprofit partners, but opportunities for learning and development? Join us on June 18th for the next session in our discussion series on Driving Impact in Corporate Volunteering, 'Optimise the Learning'! We'll be joined by CAROL LELAND to learn how Johnson & Johnson incorporates learning into their skills-based volunteer engagements and maximises their impact.
