Lendlease Foundation's flagship programme supports their people in reaching their full potential through participation in an intensive five-day personal development experience.
During 2014-18 approximately 1,000 Lendlease employees from around the world participated in the Springboard Tasman Peninsula programme, partnering with the Tasman Peninsula community in the South East of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia.
The Springboard Tasman Peninsula programme has generated over $20 million in social and economic outcomes for Lendlease participants, local community volunteers and businesses. This represents a Social Return on Investment (SROI) of around $3.60 for every $1 invested in its activities.
Lendlease Foundation was established in 1983 with the long-term goal to support social responsibility both internally to employees as well as the community by:
- Enriching the lives of employees and their families
- Aiding charities and communities where we have involvement
- Inspiring interest in the activities of Lendlease
Impact Australia had been working with Lendlease on their flagship programme, Springboard for over five years - but the time had come to relocate from running the programme in Far North Queensland. Springboard Tasman Peninsula supports Lendlease Foundation’s goals through the development of a meaningful partnership between Lendlease and the Tasman Peninsula community designed to leave a long lasting positive social legacy.
As Lendlease’s design and delivery partner on Springboard, Impact facilitate the program and create opportunities for Springboard delegates to work with local community groups on projects to help build the economic sustainability of the region; from enhancing the existing capabilities of the local community to support tourism, to improving facilities, and providing skills and training to community members.
Springboard is a five-day multi-faceted personal development programme that involves personal reflection, facilitated learning and direct community engagement.
Springboard programme sessions were designed to incorporate evidence-based practices that help people make lasting changes in their lives.
The programme is built on the foundation of Positive Psychology research and includes Strengths-Based Development, Recovery tools and Awareness practices.
Informed by current research, Springboard is a cutting edge example of how theory and research can be implemented in a practical environment.
The Springboard Tasman Peninsula community partnership is intended to enhance the sustainable development of the community and provide a meaningful, consequential learning environment for delegates to work on their own personal development.
Post programme work is also a vital part of Springboard for measurement and reporting and contributes to the longevity of Springboard and to participants own goal attainment success.
The Springboard Tasman Peninsula programme has generated over $20 million in social and economic outcomes for Lendlease participants, local community volunteers and businesses. This represents a Social Return on Investment (SROI) of around $3.60 for every $1 invested in its activities.
These figures were generated for the period of FY14 to FY16 using the SROI (Social Return on Investment) Methodology which is a framework for measuring and accounting for the social, economic and environmental value resulting from a program.
The Tasman Peninsula Springboard SROI Summary Report featuring the above results was independently assured by Social Value International.
“My outlook both professionally and personally changed dramatically and I implemented this immediately after I returned due to the skills and confidence I gained at Springboard - thank you”
