Dr. Argüden has been instrumental in the establishment of the Corporate Volunteers Association to encourage individuals with management experience contribute their time on a voluntary basis to NGOs who adopt good governance principles. Also, companies participating in this endeavor commit to evaluate these voluntary contributions by their employees in their annual performance reviews, and also publicly share the amount of voluntary work by their employees as well.

Dr. Argüden has led an effort to establish an Award Scheme, Corporate Volunteers Awards to promote effectiveness, innovation, and structural approach in corporate volunteerism.
