The Tip Jar Culture: An Inspiring
Approach to Rediscovering our
Passion

Today, volunteer board members, professionals, and
employees are facing critical challenges including historically low morale, lack of engagement, and feelings of
disconnection from priorities and responsibilities.

Globally, businesses spend $20 billion each year attempting
to improve morale and retention across all organizational
levels. Even with this sizable financial investment, less than
30% of the workforce is actively engaged and working
toward success. What most people see as problems with the
volunteer or workforce culture (or even with themselves) are
actually only symptoms of the real problem: the experience.

In this unforgettable keynote, Gregory Offner, former 'dueling
pianist turned award-winning speaker,' reveals three
principles of engaging experiences - used in piano bars - and
demonstrates steps you can take to bring them into your
everyday experience - whether you are leading a team or
searching for more enjoyment and excitement in your
endeavors.

Attendees will learn:
• A framework to create a sustainable engagement strategy
that appeals to broad and diverse groups of people.
• Three tools to implement simple, but effective shifts in
the volunteer or work experience that eliminate the
three major frustrations we have.
• Insight into the question that most leaders don't ask,
but those working alongside them wish they would.
