  • But what impact does this new more virtual workforce have on employee engagement and development?  That question is increasingly on the minds of leading employers, as telework moves from the fringes to the mainstream for talent-minded companies.
  • The workforce is currently in a period of significant adjustment – moving from one way of doing business to another.  While workplace technology has caught up to this new remote working style, the leadership and management practices of most institutions still need refining to support this new workforce.

  • Development:  Conscious and Culturally Competent Management
  • Companies that use this approach to pro bono engagement – placing their emerging talent in the hot seat of managing that challenge to test and develop their flexible leadership capabilities, while simultaneously delivering real value to nonprofit organizations, are earning a return on talent that far outweighs their investment in such programs. 
  • Engagement:  Loyalty and Purpose
  • n response, Common Impact has championed ”virtual skilled service” as a solution and an equalizer in this environment.  Most team-based nonprofit consulting projects can take place almost entirely remotely – particularly with the advances in video conferencing that make far-off colleagues feel closer.  When everyone on the team is engaging virtually, it removes the feeling of being the “other” that remote or flex-time employees can sometimes have.  We’ve seen, to our surprise, that our nonprofit clients gravitate towards these virtual engagements as well, allowing them to engage their increasingly remote workforces and make the most of everyone’s limited time and capacity.

  • Employers are scrambling to figure out how to attract and retain this new more flexible, entrepreneurial, and purpose-driven workforce. 
  • hile this is certainly not true for every employee, one of the greatest and growing challenges that Common Impact hears from companies is that employees vocalize an enormous demand for wanting to give back to the community – but then don’t sign up for the opportunities that their employers provide. 
  • No level of creative marketing and or well-placed engagement carrot can replace the empathy and experience that drives true engagement.  We need to connect our people more deeply, more simply, to the people we’re trying to serve through our community impact work.

  • If this new workforce is so strongly demanding purpose-driven and pro-social initiatives, why aren’t they showing up?

  • This very basic human connection is where we need to start – or in some cases get back to – with our thinking around how to truly engage employees, to get them to sign up, and to help them find the purpose they’re looking for in their work.
