Abstract

Purpose

Explores the benefits that employee‐volunteer schemes bring to information‐services provider McGraw‐Hill and its workers.

Design/methodology/approach

Describes the various aspects of employee volunteering, which involve some 20 percent of the company's 20,000 employees worldwide.

Findings

Concentrates on the Writers to the Rescue scheme, which gives McGraw‐Hill writers, editors and designers the chance help voluntary groups and charities to communicate their needs and accomplishments. Describes, in addition, several community education schemes, plus McGraw‐Hill's annual Global Volunteer Day, its volunteer‐team service grants and its matching‐gift program.

Practical implications

Explains that, over the past decade, the company has expanded its community‐partnership program to provide leadership‐development and project‐management training, enabling its employees to foster stronger business relationships through project management, leadership development, training and community‐skills building.

Originality/value

Reveals that employees benefit from the sense of giving something back to their communities, while the company benefits from a better‐skilled, more fulfilled and more contented workforce.

Abstract

On April 2, 1987, IBM unveiled a series of long‐awaited new hardware and software products. The new computer line, dubbed the Personal Systems 30, 50, 60, and 80, seems destined to replace the XT and AT models that are the mainstay of the firm's current personal computer offerings. The numerous changes in hardware and software, while representing improvements on previous IBM technology, will require users purchasing additional computers to make difficult choices as to which of the two IBM architectures to adopt.
