In today’s world volunteers can make meaningful contributions of time and talent to organizations, even if they live tens, hundreds, or thousands of miles away. AADE members work from diverse communities across the country and can benefit from learning from one another even when they can’t meet in person. Technology is the key to connecting, collaborating and building community both inside and outside nonprofit networks. Too often, however, often authentic and productive connections simply aren’t realized even when the tools are available.
In this audio training, you’ll learn the barriers that stand in the way of truly effective online engagement and how to pave the way for success. How can you encourage and promote robust digital interaction that supports your organization’s goals and is inspiring for volunteers? How can the challenge of a busy audience with diverse technology skill sets be converted to an opportunity for greater synergy? We’ll share what the research says about online communities and today’s increasingly virtual workforce, and you’ll learn specific steps you can take to cultivate a more vibrant interchange of ideas and wisdom.
The handout that accompanies this webinar will include specific tools and pragmatic tactics you can use to spark, or renew, a culture of digital connection at your organization.
