Network for Good Identifies Five Trends to Improve Employee Engagement and Drive Business Results

Today, Network for Good (http://www.networkforgood.org/partner) releases a new eGuide, “Employee Engagement: 5 Trends Shaping Employee Social Impact Programs,” that provides strategies and tools to promote employee involvement in social good and volunteer projects. It also shows how increased engagement through impact programs adds to the company’s bottom line.

You can access the eGuide here.

“Having an engaged workforce is a crucial competitive advantage in today’s marketplace, not only for motivational, feel-good reasons, but for bottom-line returns,” said Bill Strathmann, CEO of Network for Good. “Community involvement programs are a vital component of any engagement strategy, as they tap into employee passions to drive loyalty, satisfaction and skill-building.”

The new eGuide outlines the case for cause and explains how social impact increases engagement by empowering employees to support their favorite causes while at work. It describes five trends that are shaping social impact in the workplace; charity rewards, mobile access to an engagement portfolio, sharing through social media, micro “do-gooding” and global participation. It also provides tactical recommendations for implementing the trends.
