Society of Internet Professionals™: SIP at the CareerDoor Job Fair: Job Board Launch Change Management Seminar and More...

Society of Internet Professionals™: SIP at the CareerDoor Job Fair: Job Board Launch Change Management Seminar and More...

This is a Job Fair 2.0 - NEW Recruitment Vehicle for HiTech Professionals

Co-founder and CTO, Chuck Mariotti, says “As an IT Professional myself and co-founder, it was important to me that our events offered a more dignified and valuable experience for IT Professionals than career fairs of the past. We had to have ways to allow for one-on-one scheduled interviews and value-added educational and networking opportunities as well. We are really looking to partner with the HiTech community and the organizations that service them – that is what makes us stand-out!”

found. Job seekers can now finally secure interviews with hiring
managers giving you a chance to demonstrate you have the skills and
capabilities to tackle the position offered. Our HiTech targeted

Citizenship 2.0: Five Good Ideas

Five Good Ideas' Page

Register now for 2007 Five Good Ideas sessions

Five Good Ideas
Building Essential Management Skills for Successful Community Organizations
2006-2007 Series
The management of nonprofit organizations is a complex and unique task, made all the more challenging by the resource limitations that many of the GTA's nonprofit organizations find themselves battling.
Five Good Ideas is a lunch and learn program where industry or issue experts discuss powerful yet practical ideas on key management issues facing nonprofit organizations. The sessions are most useful for management staff and board members at small and mid-sized nonprofits.
Each expert presents five practical yet strategic ideas and explores with the audience how these ideas can be translated into action. At the end of each session, participants self-organize in small groups and continue the discussion to generate the best and most relevant of all ideas. The "good ideas" are published on our website as a lasting resource tool for nonprofits.
These is an upcoming session:

Citizenship 2.0
with Anil Patel, Executive Director, Framework Foundation
Wednesday, February 14, 2007 - 12:00 to 2:00 PM
Today, many active community leaders argue that no single sector – public, private or nonprofit – is capable of solving our modern day challenges on its own. A new dialogue is needed, and a more powerful focus on citizen involvement is required to collectively address these issues. Anil Patel will provocatively explore the role that volunteerism plays in the context of the ‘greater good’. Anil’s talk will unveil his newly coined concept of Citizenship 2.0, a more holistic approach to the challenges and opportunities relating to civic responsibility through the lens of volunteerism. He will present an interconnected core set of principles that focus on how to maximize a citizen’s contribution in the community over the long-term relative to their capacity to give.

TURNING OUT TO TALK YOUNG PHILANTHROPY AT THE FRINGE

Anil Patel, Director and Co-Founder of the Framework Foundation, an organization that advocates volunteerism through creative initiatives, suggested that giving doesn’t have to be an “either-or” choice. Donating time rather than money is a worthwhile compromise. For every $1 spent in traditional fundraising campaigns, only $2 is generated. For every $1 spent on volunteerism efforts, $7 in benefits is generated. By encouraging what Samir Khan of D-Code, a strategic marketing firm, calls the “participatory instinct,” both the donor and organization benefit.

Anil Patel, co-founder and Executive Director of the Framework Foundation said that:

“The Working Group has developed a very impressive modelling process that has exceeded the expectations of Framework Foundation. Framework Foundation is a small but growing organization with limited experience and skills in systems design. The Working Group was essential in making Framework Foundation a big hit with our volunteers, partner volunteer agencies and key-stakeholders. I would recommend the Working Group to all other NGOs looking for information technology/information management solutions."
