Volunteerism is a pillar of philanthropy. It helps nonprofit organizations accomplish day-to-day objectives and reach long-term goals when resources are scarce. It helps strengthen communities and provides enormous benefit to the volunteers themselves.

WIF is deeply indebted to the volunteers who have given their time and expertise to support our mission and vision over the years and continue to support us today.

]]> WIF hosted its first Leadership, Communication, and Creativity workshop in Paris, France on October 28, 2016. Through scenario-based exercises, five attendees spent the day learning the importance of:

  • becoming conscious of how their attitude influences their environment and relationships at work and
  • enhancing self-leadership skills to facilitate keeping an open mind during stressful situations.

The ultimate goal of the workshop is to teach attendees how to manage unforeseen challenges more easily and harmoniously so they can provide better results for the end user of their product or service.

IMPACT:

Each attendee at the workshop took away a plan to address a specific business challenge:

There was enough flexibility for us to be able to share very specific experiences and get some direct feedback based on – I’d call it scenario-based workshops . . . we were going through a process to understand the challenge and the different opportunities to address that challenge or mitigate that risk.
– Michele L. Turner
(Senior Manager for Business Continuity and Operational Risk programs at Amazon Corporate (Seattle, WA))

The day after the workshop, participants enjoyed strengthening their newly forged relationships at a Wine and Canvas party.
