Serving for an association not only allows you to volunteer your expertise and time to support your organization, but also benefits you personally and professionally. It’s an opportunity to build your skills in new areas, work on projects you ordinarily wouldn’t have the chance to, and to build new connections with professionals in your industry and beyond.
Five reasons to volunteer for our association:
-
Become an advocate for your community, cause, or industry
- Volunteering enables you to become an integral part of raising the profile of your organization, as well as better understand the workings of the organization
-
Gain a new skillset
- You will be able to join committees and activities, which help you expand on your skillset and utilize talents you wouldn’t otherwise be able to.
-
Build your network
- Serving as a volunteer for an association or a professional network will introduce you to professionals from across the business community.
-
Grow your leadership skills
- Volunteering is a great way to work on your leadership and negotiating skills. Often important decisions are made to solve problems or to make improvements in your association or community.
-
Personal and professional development
- Volunteering can expose you to professional experiences that you wouldn’t otherwise gain – you could be making decisions on finance, governance, and ethical issues that affect the entire organization.
