THE PROBLEM
About 10,000 baby boomers retire daily. Millennials and Zoomers are taking their place, currently representing over 60% of the U.S. workforce.
Younger generations care deeply about social causes. organizations who give them a greater purpose – other than profit – enjoy higher rates of consumerism, engagement, productivity, retention, and profitability.
Unsurprisingly, 91% of customers expect businesses to do more than turn a profit. As such, they are making values-based purchasing and employment decisions. It costs over $40 billion/year to replace and retrain unsatisfied Millennials and Zoomers: a cost that further increased in the post-COVID Great Resignation. Despite these trends, most businesses are clueless to what their stakeholders value and consistently employ misaligned Corporate Social Justice (CSJ) strategies.

CULTURE IS A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
Culture-forward businesses, such as many of Fortune’s 500 Best Companies to Work For, exemplify the fact that businesses who put their people first outperform others. Businesses that give their people a higher purpose, other than profit, perform even better.
Positive workplace culture is the common trait across businesses of all sizes. It is especially critical for small to medium-sized businesses, who often struggle to attract and retain talent. Competitive compensation and benefits are impossible for many businesses. Fostering great culture isn’t.
ELEVATING ENGAGEMENT, RETENTION, BRAND, AND SOCIAL IMPACT
Our mission supports positive cultures by fostering relationships through common ground. This mission helps businesses create and enhance flourishing cultures, cultivates engaged and productive people, retains talent, enhances community engagement, and improves customer experiences.
We accomplish this by learning about an individual’s passions through their philanthropy. Contributions of time, money, and goods tells you a lot about what matters to someone. This makes philanthropy – embraced by 63% of Americans – a great source for people’s values. Our insights help businesses develop and maintain strongly aligned cultures, customer experiences, and community engagement.
