Best practices for tracking your results and telling your story
Managing an effective employee volunteer program brings many benefits to your organization, including building a collaborative, positive work environment with engaged employees who have high morale and confidence in your company. But if you’re not actively measuring and tracking the outcomes of the program itself, you’re missing an opportunity to reap the many additional benefits that come from accurate measurement—such as giving employees recognition for their hard work; facilitating more informed, data-driven decision making; a better ability to tell your story to the communities you serve; etc. We have some best practices for realizing those benefits through effective tracking and reporting of your program’s impact, including:
