Our unique tool, the Culture of Generosity, emphasizes generosity with boundaries to drive meaningful DEI initiatives.In collaboration with "Meninas Digitais do Vale," a project from the Federal University of Ceará, we developed a platform to diagnose, analyze, and measure six key indicators: productivity, work environment, absenteeism, turnover, diversity, and generosity. This platform helps companies understand their internal social challenges and devise strategic actions aligned with ESG and corporate social responsibility goals.Our first project with SESI in Campina Grande delivered remarkable results. After a year of implementation, we saw a 25% increase in productivity, improved engagement in DEI activities, and heightened awareness through the creation of a dedicated DEI Committee.I am proud to lead these initiatives, promoting productivity and innovation while ensuring emotional well-being.
