Effective corporate citizenship yields many benefits: greater productivity, improved reputation, increased employee retention, and lower cost of recruiting. Meanwhile, a recent Gallup study found 87% of workers globally are disengaged, and estimates that actively disengaged employees cost U.S. businesses $450–$550 billion per year in productivity losses. Corporate citizenship initiatives, especially volunteer and giving programs, have the potential to increase engagement. This course explores strategies and leading practices for designing CSR programs that improve employee engagement. Take it to learn:

• The business value of employee engagement.
• How corporate citizenship efforts encourage employee engagement.
• Strategies for creating and deepening engagement.
• Engagement tactics to connect with senior leadership, managers, and employees.
• Tools for rewarding employee participation in corporate citizenship programs and measuring engagement.
