Volunteering doesn’t happen by accident, and neither should the funding, leadership and strategic support that sustain it. In an increasingly competitive environment, volunteer-involving organisations need compelling evidence to demonstrate the full value of their work and secure long-term investment.

Join Chris Wade for an insightful and practical session exploring how a volunteering-focused Balanced Scorecard can help organisations measure, communicate and strengthen the impact of volunteering. Discover how to combine meaningful data with powerful stories to build a stronger business case, influence decision makers and shift perceptions of volunteer development from an operational cost to a strategic investment.

Whether you are responsible for volunteer management, organisational leadership or demonstrating impact to funders and stakeholders, this session will provide practical tools and approaches to make the contribution of volunteering impossible to ignore.

Key learning outcomes:

  • Understand how a volunteering-focused Balanced Scorecard can support strategic decision making.
  • Learn ways to measure and evidence the wider value and impact of volunteering.
  • Explore how data and storytelling can work together to influence stakeholders.
  • Strengthen your case for investment in volunteer programmes and infrastructure.
  • Gain practical ideas to elevate volunteering as a strategic organisational asset.
