We believe Volunteer Engagement, as a profession rooted in relationship building, is both an art and a science. Using research and data-driven insights, we help leaders of volunteers and organizations take volunteer involvement to new heights with quantifiable tactics and strategies. This allows you to draw a direct line between your work involving volunteers with real dividends and outcomes your organization is striving towards.
Through training, coaching and various tools, we will help you and your organization become better partners to volunteers, build a strong foundation and culture for volunteer involvement, maximizing the impact on your mission and enhancing the quality of experience you can offer every volunteer that connects with you.
spinktank began with an invitation- when our founder completed her Master's Degree research quantifying the concept of 'volunteer engagement', invitations and requests from peers began pouring in, first locally and then growing to the international level to share these ground-breaking findings.
Through speaking engagements and conversations, spinktank has grown to now offer a range of thought-provoking articles, live and online trainings, coaching and consulting, as well as free tools to continue pushing the practice of Volunteer Engagement forward.
For me, when done right, Volunteer Engagement is a form of Transformational Leadership. If you're a leader of volunteers, investing in your skills and knowledge will not only improve your practice, but is very likely to transform your organization and the volunteers you partner with. All this with the added benefit of having more significant, measurable impact on the mission all of you are working towards. How could you not invest in that? Please reach out to discuss how I can support you or your organization in moving Volunteer Engagement forward.
