Join us - Robert and Stephanie from Yes We Can - to think together about how we invest and develop our people - our volunteers, staff and trustees - in our north east VCSE.
We'll share our thoughts on how to create cultures of learning, development and growth within our north east VCSE sector, including
• what the research tells us (drawing on the most recent Third Sector Trends study ‘employees, volunteers, diversity and investment in people’, 2022
• how to effectively resource workforce development in charities and social enterprises
• how to allocate resources across your workforce including trustees
• how to align your workforce development plan with your organisational values
We’ll also explore how we can work together to create cultures of learning, development and growth within our north east VCSE sector.
This matters to us and we've been working on it for over a decade. We have some big - and small! - ideas to share to help us all flourish in our social change roles in our region.
14:30-15:00 arrive, settle in, connect with each other
15:00-17:00 Investing in our people: Creating cultures of learning, development and growth within our north east VCSE sector (with a short break around 16:00)
17:00 + join us for a NET Pop Up after party in a local bar (venue to be confirmed)
Our collective mission here at North East Together is to create the conditions, and platform for, collaboration to become the norm in the north east and to nurture a healthier social change system. Together we can do this.
We believe that bringing people together to tackle social injustice will create positive change - in our communities, organisations and the social systems we live and work within. Our network offers mutual support, enables collaboration and inspires social leaders. We offer a series of dynamic network events; whole day events, self-organised collaborative working groups; pathways into coaching; and independent social change events. It’s for leaders from the voluntary, charity, social enterprise, education, public and private sectors. It’s for experienced, new and future leaders of organisations, work, and ideas.
North East Together is hosted by Yes We Can.
We use your name and email address to run the event. We will send you a confirmation email when you book, the advance information a week or so before the event, and an event follow up email. We will not use your email address for anything else. If you ask to be added to the NET mailing list when you book, we'll add your name and email address to our mailing list, which we run via JISCMail.
We will share information about how to join North East Together if you are not already a member in the confirmation, pre-event and follow up emails. You can also join at the event.
