The Big V (Promotion of volunteerism and civic engagement)

Volunteerism is so BIG and IMPORTANT that, at The Good Leadership, we started call it “The BIG V”.  

Though undervalued, civic engagement, the foundation of the BIG V, is the glue of societal cohesion and human centered development. 

In an era of disenchantment and detachment, also powered by a toxic use of social media, The Good Leadership Academy proposes theoretical frameworks together with practical exercises to design and promote BIG V related activities.  

Some of the topics/themes under this are centered on:  

• Civic Engagement: The Indispensable strength for 21^st Century 

• The different ways, shapes and forms of “doing” the BIG V 

• Designing and Implementing a BIG V action on the ground  

• The Big Challenge: How to measure the BIG V 

• Time Banking: the Foundations  

• Links between the BIG V and personal leadership 

Through this area, The Good Leadership Academy will help participants answer the following questions:  

• Why should I invest in the BIG V?  

• How can I enhance and boost my leadership through the BIG V?  

• What are the different types and ways of “doing” the BIG V?  

• How can I design and plan a BIG V initiative?  

• How does the BIG V impact at ground level?  

• How to monitor and assess a BIG V initiative?  

• What are the volunteering standards?
