OneOC “Doing Good, Together” Summit

Disney, Google, IBM, PwC, and thousands of smaller businesses involve their employees in giving back to the community. Whether your business has three or 300,000 employees, dozens or millions of customers, stakeholders expect you to do good, not just well. You can still register for this event if you’d like to join us.

Points of Light Conference on Volunteering and Service

October 20th
Houston, Texas

While the whole conference promises to be engaging and educational, we’re especially excited about three sessions. One is called Employee Engagement: What’s Working and What’s Not. Chris Jarvis will have the opportunity to present alongside Charlie Agee from Altria and Spring Lacey from Prudential and London Roth from Humana. Then, we’re pretty excited about our session alongside the authors of Volunteer Engagement 2.0. We’ll talk about the ideas and insights that are powering transformative change in the way relationships, strategies, partnerships, and technology impact volunteer engagement in today’s world. Finally, IMPACT 2030 will be presented at a session entitled Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals Through Employee Volunteerism. Lots of great stuff. Hope to see you there!

Companies and Causes Canada

October 22nd
Toronto, Ontario

From the geniuses behind the Cause Marketing Forum, Companies and Causes Canada enjoyed its inaugural event last year and promises to be even bigger and better this year. Realized Worth will be there talking about employee engagement. There’s a big difference between getting people to show up for volunteering opportunities and creating experiences that energize your colleagues. Join us to discuss further. And don’t miss Harvard Business School Professor Michael Norton as he shares field-tested research from Canada and around the world demonstrating how cause campaigns generate increased purchases and loyalty for companies while boosting customer and employee satisfaction.

Conference Board – Strategic Community Impact Symposium

December 1st
New York, New York

This event will showcase inspiring practices in corporate community involvement from the perspective of two lenses. First, within the company itself – engaging, encouraging, and enabling growing leaders within the business through the corporate volunteering efforts of the company. Second, outside of the company – through collaborative and innovative partnerships with nonprofits, government and community leaders; interesting projects and forward-thinking ideas. Look for Realized Worth’s Corey Diamond at this event, not to mention other high-caliber thinkers on the impressive list of speakers.

2015 VolunteerMatch Summit

December 1st
San Francisco, California

We’re excited to join VolunteerMatch for this summit of like-minded professionals in the fields of employee engagement and corporate responsibility. Every year, the summit proves to be an energetic space to get together, share best practices, and learn from industry experts. The previous 13 Summits have only been open to VolunteerMatch corporate clients, but this year, they’re inviting companies far and wide who are committed to community engagement. There’s still time to register!
