Volunteer engagement and the formation of committees are vital tools for organizational growth, fostering innovation, and enhancing governance. These initiatives allow for diverse expertise to converge, ensuring efficient decision-making and strategic alignment with broader goals. Here's how the Dubai Real Estate Brokerage and Property Management Group is utilizing this strategy to foster sustainable development.
The Power of Volunteerism
Research underscores the transformative potential of volunteerism. Deloitte highlights that 70% of organizations leveraging volunteers report improved morale, teamwork, and community engagement. Harvard Business Review adds that empowered, diverse teams make better decisions 87% of the time, contributing to a 20% increase in innovation revenues.
By integrating volunteers into committees, the group taps into a rich pool of expertise, driving forward initiatives that reflect the collective vision of its members.
