What differentiates us from other institutes?

As an international partner, we help organisations in their development towards becoming good workplaces. Our mission is to contribute to a better world by increasing trust, pride and pleasure within organisations. We stand out for the following three reasons:

Philosophy

Being a good employer is not about satisfaction or terms of employment. Mutual relationships based on trust, pride and pleasure determine whether an organisation will be a successful employer in the long term. The Great Place to Work® model, based on these three relationships, is applicable to all organisations irrespective of their size, culture or sector.

Two complementary perspectives

Great Place to Work® looks at good employment practices from two perspectives: that of the employee and that of the organisation. This combination allows us to measure the level of trust, pride and pleasure and how the organisational culture is shaped in practice. These two perspectives also form the basis for our recognition of good employment practices.

International

Great Place to Work® is based in more than 50 countries. Every year, we help around 10.000 organisations all over the world. Indeed, the Great Place to Work® methodology can be applied everywhere. For multinational organisations this means that we can coordinate projects consistently and from a single country.

"Great Place to Work® gives added value in two areas. First, it provides insights into the strengths of our organisation, allowing us to keep improving. Second, as an organisation it gives us a huge boost in employer branding."

Schoenen Torfs

"Great Place to Work® offers the tools we need to measure how our employees experience our policy, which is based on our core values. The research also keeps us focused in terms of benchmarking with other organisations."
