GivingTuesday: Celebrate the Power of Generosity

InsiderPosted | Category: BRM Community, BRM Philosophy | Contributed

On this GivingTuesday, join the single, global BRM community in support of advancing the BRM purpose for years to come!

GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to shape their communities and the world.

Business relationship management has a noble purpose: help organizations realize value to the betterment of society, while also enriching the lives of others.

BRM Institute exists to support and advance this purpose and provides the network to harness and share the combined knowledge from professionals around the world.

The events industry was hit particularly hard during the pandemic; our venues had to close, resulting in our organization having zero revenue and having to make some tough decisions to ensure we could sustain and rebuild.

The majority of our employees were furloughed throughout 2020, and the future remained uncertain. The BRM Institute hardship membership provided me with a support networking during a very lonely time and resources I could utilize to work my way through an extremely challenging world!

Through the use of the BRM toolkit, we continued to demonstrate the value we add as BRMs during the most difficult time our business has ever seen. I am extremely grateful the hardship membership option was available. It supported me through the pandemic and has helped me shape my BRM team for restart and rebuild as we come out of the pandemic.

Give the Gift of Time

Volunteering is a great way to show support and give back to the global BRM community. Research shows that volunteering can help your career progression and your mood, and it can even reduce stress! Volunteers lead the way as they follow their passion and help drive a shared vision forward. Check out volunteer opportunities and get involved this GivingTuesday.

I began volunteering in 2013, the year BRM Institute was established. It was my way of giving back and supporting the single, global BRM community. Little did I know, this experience would transform me as a technology professional, as an individual, and as a leader. Through BRM, I found my purpose and built lasting relationships. BRM changed my mindset, which strengthened my leadership capacity.
