Are you struggling to increase employee volunteerism and sustain or heighten their level of commitment? Are you looking to develop employee giving and volunteering experiences that are both meaningful to employees and contribute to a more inclusive society?

Join us for a thought-provoking session to rethink the way you approach employee volunteerism. During this session, you will hear about groundbreaking research, inspiring stories, and real-life examples that you can integrate into your corporate citizenship program to empower employees to challenge their assumptions, become alert to new ideas, and take action toward a company-wide social movement.

After this session, you will understand the difference between transactional and transformative volunteering and gain practical insights for working with nonprofits and key partners, including how to plan transformative experiences that engage employees at their highest level of contribution.

Chris also acts as the Executive Director of RW Institute, a think tank aimed at removing barriers to corporate citizenship through transdisciplinary, coordinated action and scientific research. One of the current emphasis is the use of behavioral science to ‘nudge’ sustained prosocial behavior in the workplace to tackle common obstacles of low awareness and participation, address implicit bias and nudge employees to make deeper commitments in their community investment.
