What Makes Our Award
so distinct is What We Measure
What makes our certification so distinct from others
is that what we measure is so unique compared to other awards.
Our Freedom at Work Scorecard™,
which determines certification eligibility, looks deeper than just
engagement, satisfaction, trust, or happiness levels.
Instead, it delves into your leadership and organizational design –
the leading factor for driving growth, engagement,
and freedom within your workplace.
Our innovative assessment, available in 13 languages,
measures your organizational leadership and design
against the 10 Principles of Organizational Democracy,
across three critical dimensions:
the individual, leadership, and the performance of
your systems and processes.
Purpose + vision
integrity
dialogue + listening
transparency
accountability
decentralization
individual + collective
choice
fairness + dignity
reflection + evaluation
Join a thriving global community of forward-thinking organizations embracing freedom as their guiding leadership principle.
To begin, simply fill out our brief application. Upon completion, you'll go to the final step—gathering your organizational information, a quick process taking 3-5 minutes. After that, we'll reach out to schedule a convenient time for your team to take the Freedom at Work Scorecard!
