Solving A Universal COVID-19 Business Problem

A case study on how Intermountain Lacrosse (IMLAX), a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to the organization and growth of youth lacrosse in Utah and southern Idaho, and the largest geographic league in the U.S., is using HealthShield from 42Chat to safely reopen its league.

With over 179 teams and 3500 players, across 50 different programs in 20 locations, the idea of gathering thousands of COVID symptom screenings in a consistent, compliant, and timely manner was daunting. Adding to the complexity was that 75 percent of the audience – the children – couldn’t vouch for themselves, which meant that parents had to do so. And often, the parents had multiple kids playing on different teams and different fields. How would parents be in two places at once to vouch for their children and sign a paper survey? How would the league track all of the paper surveys, communicate which children had completed the survey, and where would they store them in order to prove compliance if needed? The levels of complexity were great, and the liability factor serious.

Team IMPACT CEO Writes for Chief Learning Officer

Seth Rosenzweig, CEO of client team IMPACT, wrote a piece for Chief Learning Officer about building stronger leaders through volunteerism and mentorship. As the leader of the Boston-based nonprofit connecting children facing serious or chronic illnesses with college athletic teams, he is very familiar with the psychological and sociological effects of isolation and believes that this knowledge is something that all leaders and managers will now need to familiarize themselves with in order to lead effectively in this new reality. He shares what lessons leaders can take from this knowledge to help their isolated teams stay connected and inspired in this time of COVID-19 quarantine and social distancing.

“Philanthropy and volunteerism can help us navigate seemingly impossible situations and focus on silver linings — something we can all benefit from at a time like this. The lessons we can take from being mentors, for example, are many and can be applied to other areas of life such as leadership, management, self-control and more. How can you encourage your team to give back not only in a time of need but as a way of life?”
