Spotlight on You

Ï㽶ÐãCCC members featured prominently on the agenda at this week’s virtual . Here are some memorable quotes from speakers:

“We knew that if we wanted to achieve scale of participation, we had to digitize our offerings. What we needed was an always-on, integrated digital solution that enabled employees to find the opportunities that mattered to them, either locally or globally, and take action, either in-person or virtually.â€

Ajay Gopal, Cisco

“Don't be afraid to find ways to measure the unmeasurable. [ESG metrics] will help you in all kinds of business conversations when you confront skeptical voices in the room about how much this work matters. The more you can put the argument in terms of operations, risk reduction, and profit enhancement, the better off you'll be.â€

Evan Harvey, Nasdaq

“Much of our work cannot be measured immediately, so we have to remind people, especially managers, of long-term impacts.â€

Christine Hoisington, Booz Allen Hamilton

“We partner with communities that know their needs best and build relationships with nonprofits based on transparency and mutual learning. We also know that when a community needs change, we must change with it.â€

Teresa Pelletier, Fidelity Investments

“Potentially we have five generations of workers together in the same organization. Gen Z is the most racially and ethnically diverse of the generations and also the largest. We really need to be thinking and rethinking how we engage our employees in our various citizenship programs from ERGs to employee volunteering.â€

Elena Sacca Smith, Toyota

“With episodic activities you don’t get connectivity, you don’t get that sense of belonging. Liberty Torchbearers is all about drawing those connections, not just to the causes Liberty cares about, but the causes employees care about.â€

Sylvia Stevens-Edouard, Liberty Mutual Insurance

"The thing that I've been focusing on for the past several years is becoming a better thinker on a systems-, enterprise-, and strategy-level. In other words, how do you connect the dots?"

Immanuel Sutherland, Altria Client Services

Some of these speakers will be in attendance at the IN-PERSON International Corporate Citizenship Conference 2022 taking place in Boston on April 24-25. You can join them to learn and network with hundreds of professionals in the CSR field: .
