I serve as IAC Cleveland president and am fortunate to work alongside a talented group of people, among them Sean Williams. My volunteerism contributes to skills that I need professionally and personally. I've gained management, HR and finance skills. My teenagers see my volunteer activities (IABC and service-based) and are realizing they must (to paraphrase) be the change they wish to see in the world. Shonali,

I like how you frame the concept of involvement as part of one's job. I think a lot of people feel if they're not getting paid for it, it doesn't count. But our experiences - and those of so many more - show that it does. It's how you make it count, isn't it? Thanks for your insight, Jeff.
