The experience
Turn collective thinking into meaningful action.
Most corporate volunteering asks people to give their time. Impact Sprint gives them a real challenge to solve.
In this fast-paced, facilitator-led online workshop, your team hears directly from a charity, school, university or community organisation about a current challenge. Participants then move into small breakout groups to unpack the problem, develop practical ideas and pitch their recommendations back to the organisation.
It is a meaningful change of pace from the day-to-day—and an opportunity for colleagues across locations to connect, think differently and contribute their skills to something that matters. In just 60 minutes, the community partner leaves with fresh perspectives and ideas it can act on.
Designed for: Corporate volunteering programs, CSR and ESG initiatives, people and culture teams, learning and development programs, employee-engagement events and distributed teams looking to create practical community impact.
