What a great way to let the boss know you are interested in learning more! Going beyond mere listening and doing in essential to the competitive advantage we all need! Thanks! Matt - your right, there is more that just the feel-good feeling that you get from charitable volunteering! When it comes to my current position i volunteer for every charity that comes through that I can squeeze in! But remember the post was not only about volunteering to help the needy as it is volunteering for work projects and assignments! Thanks for the comment. Megan – Asking question is so important.

As a senior in college, having interned in the corporate world and volunteered through my campus organizations, the reward goes way beyond the usual "feel-good feeling" that most people are looking for when the volunteer. Career connections, working with a wealth of individuals from different backgrounds, and unique managerial styles almost always leads to increased awareness and better ability to perform where ever your career may take you.

I was so nervous as a new hire to put myself out there and ask, but I have found that you really can't ever ask enough. Good post buddy!
