Design an Impactful Organizational Alumni Program
Optimize the alumni network through meaningful connections to support strategic objectives.
Alumni are not currently thought of as part of the employee lifecycle and organizations often treat alumni initiatives as a side of desk project.
Alumni desire a connection with prior employers and understand there is opportunity for mutual benefit, but many alumni groups lack involvement from the organization itself.
Additionally, organizations often have difficulty determining program ownership and placement within the broader organizational structure.
Organizational alumni programs are more
than just an affiliation with a former employer; they’re about building a
network that supports strategic objectives related to the talent pipeline, the
employer brand, and business growth.
Impact & Result
Design a robust alumni program that encourages the organization to rethink the employee lifecycle and creates mutual benefit for both alumni and the organization.
