SIS Rewind - Global Goodness: Strategies to scale Employee Activism around the World

In today's video, we rewind to a previous episode on how to build global employee activism programs, the challenges of avoiding volunteer burnout, and strategies to scale impact such as leveraging templates and data.

We chat with Jo Jeffreys, Principle Social Value Consultant with Jacobs and explore what global activism looks like today through examples of replicating campaigns across regions, how to gain executive buy-in, and why in-person events are critical for inspiration and motivation. Jo shares advice for getting started like communicating the "why", putting structures in place to support volunteers, and making involvement fun through competitions and rewards.
