I was in the airport on my way home from a day-long meeting facilitation, and the guy next to me said, “Are you a consultant?” We consultants are a dime a dozen in the airport, and we’re easy to spot (You know the look: suit, computer on lap, phone to ear, plugged into the wall). I nodded, and he said, “What are you telling your clients about the change in administration? How are you helping them prepare?” He had no idea what kind of consultant I was, but it didn’t matter. The question is pertinent to anyone who works for or with organizations in for-profit, government, and nonprofit sectors. Every time the administration changes, organizations of all types face the same question: What do I need to do in order to be prepared?
In part one, we covered 3 secrets to building employee engagement through your workplace giving program. We hope they helped you bump up your employee participation and strengthen your foundation for success.

People matter. This is a lesson my dad taught me very early on in life. Although he never actually said those words to me, I was lucky enough to watch him engage in life and embrace the human race. As a little girl, and even as a grown woman, I was always amazed by how he connected with people from all walks of life¸ and inspired by his genuine curiosity in people and their life stories. I suppose his background as a sociology professor sparked that flame.
