Employee Experience
In today's workplace, 80% of employees report feeling lonely, which hurts engagement and retention. Generus addresses this challenge with employee engagement events focused on volunteerism and rooted in positive psychology. Our model supports well-being and increases engagement by meeting deeper psychological needs for belonging and fulfillment. After participating in a Generus event, 97% of volunteers report stronger connections to their company and coworkers. And companies using Generus see a 5-20% boost in volunteering and a 6% increase in overall employee satisfaction within two years.
