Thank you to Susan Bishop with Wells Fargo Bank for inviting me to the Main Line Chamber of Commerce panel discussion Doing Well by Doing Good. The panel of corporate leaders inspired the audience with ways they serve both their community and their employees. Kevin Nolan President of Nolan Painting, Inc. strongly encourages all employees to be involved in the community. It is one of the interview questions at the hiring stage and it become part of their life.
Volunteering impacts the life of the volunteer probably as much as it impacts the charity. Statistics show that volunteers are generally healthier, report greater job satisfaction, and develop new skills. They are able to meet more diverse people and build satisfying relationships. Encouraging your employees to serve the community actually serves your employees by enriching their lives.
