Description
Employee volunteerism is an effective way for businesses to support the local community, build workplace morale, and support employee recruitment and retention. Employees who are engaged in volunteering report increased productivity, enhanced leadership skills, and a more positive organizational culture. According to a Deloitte study, almost 77% of working Americans surveyed reported that volunteering is essential to employee well-being.
A great way to volunteer is to mentor others - particularly youth. It provides critical support leading to improved educational outcomes and personal development for mentees while building our future workforce and our local economy.
Join us to learn more about the benefits to businesses and the workforce and hear about local experiences from area partners.
Panelists include:
Eleni Sokos, Sokos Social
Assistant Chief Joshua Cramer, Bradenton Police Department
Alicia Chalmers, Manatee Community Foundation
This webinar is brought to you in partnership with REACH Manatee.
