Doing
Well by Doing Good
“We make a living by what we get, but we make a
life by what we give.”
– Winston
Churchill
Building
a social bond with your community is an important factor for growing and
maintaining a successful business. Customers want to see a business not only
providing high quality goods and services but, also lending a hand to the
community. As a business owner, take the initiative to create and put into
action a social mission to help brand your company positively with the community.
Most businesses and organizations have mission and vision
statements but, lack a social mission. Organize a strong social mission with
your team by narrowing down a realistic game plan of goals that can be put into
action within the next 6-8 months. It’s important to remember that you want
your social goals to help the community but not cause serious interruptions of
day to day functions for
employees.
With
the holiday season right around the corner, many charitable organizations are
in need of volunteers or donations of different kinds. Whether it’s donating
money, time, or food, make an effort to reach out to local community and offer
assistance and keep your team involved.
Make your mark on the community by organizing a realistic social
mission that can last year after year. A social mission encourages teamwork
among coworkers while showing that your business values and supports the
surrounding community and its people.
