Dallas Campus I/O Department to host Social Impact Day 

Dr. Glen Earl, Dept. Chair Business Psychology

Real-world experience is on tap for students at the Dallas Campus’ upcoming Social Impact Day for grassroots nonprofits and small businesses in the local area. 

Organized by Dr. Glen Earl in partnership with the Dallas Fort Worth Organization Development Network (DFW-ODN), the Social Impact Day is an event where TCSPP-Dallas Business Psychology Department provides a half-day of free organizational development consulting (OD) to local non-profits and small businesses. 

“Both M.A. IO and Ph.D. students participate,” explained Dr. Earl. “We team up with seasoned OD practitioners from the DFW-ODN and offer several elements of organizational development, including strategic visioning and implementation; clarifying vision, mission and values; and organizational design and structure.” 

This will be the second time the Dallas Campus hosts a Social Impact Day (SID), prompted by Dr. Earl’s experience with one several years ago. “I had such a positive experience, I decided to launch a SID here at TCSPP-Dallas. It gives students an early hands-on experience of what organizational development is really like. The SID is actually a laboratory where students learn in real time.”  

They hope to have a minimum of five organization participate during the half day October 26th event, and non-profit organizations and small businesses interested in free consultation are encouraged to contact Dr. Earl at [email protected] for information about applying.  Registration is open.

 “The SID demonstrates all four of the TCSPP values of Education, Innovation, Service and Community. Additionally, it provides the students a realistic experience of their profession.”
