We seek transformative change in the world, and in ourselves.
A Certified B Corp, Geneva Global is firmly committed to incorporating its values and principles into all aspects of how we work, from our culture and our teams to our client engagement and relationships. We seek to create and maintain a welcoming culture that is rooted in trust and fostered by our team members, who are purpose-driven, collaborative, caring, and highly motivated.
For Geneva Global and its employees to take an active part in how philanthropy evolves, we believe that continuous learning, sharing, and growing are critical.
To support a culture that is respectful, safe, open, curious, and inclusive of our values, our staff developed five Community Agreements, which codify how we work together. Meetings, professional development, employee assessment, and more are informed by these shared understandings.
Create a culture rooted in trust.
Embrace discomfort.
Center learning and growth.
Cultivate space for multiple experiences and voices.
Engage in frequent, open, and clear communication.
Within Geneva Global, everyone in the organization is responsible for advancing the company’s values and living its principles. To that end, significant effort is made to ensure every employee at Geneva Global is—and feels—seen, heard, and supported by their peers and our leadership. We incorporate our values into our workplace through:
Culture Club
The Culture Club is a quarterly discussion series for Geneva Global and Global Impact staff that examines books, movies, television shows, podcasts, and other media related to our values. This regular meeting creates a space for learning, discussion, and growth.
Communications
Geneva Global shares its values internationally with staff, as well as within the broader philanthropic community through various communications.
Corporate Social Responsibility
Since 2014, we have been intentionally using our corporate social responsibility funding to support organizations that share our values. We continue to explore ways we can provide support to local organizations through volunteering and pro bono work.
We have begun to learn as philanthropy professionals how our values are relevant to our client engagements and what it means to bring these values to life. For example:
