The Give and Take Company
Whether you choose the software model or a live event, the Give and Take philosophy works. And it’s proven by research, studies and happy customers worldwide.
Give and Take builds software that helps you build a culture of generosity at work, which leads to better employee engagement and productivity, all in less than five minutes a day.
We apply the concepts of generalized reciprocity to enterprises in an accessible, scalable way through our products, Givitas and the Reciprocity Ring.
Give and Take is rooted in cutting-edge academic research showing that a giving culture leads to positive business outcomes like increased employee efficiency, productivity, loyalty, and engagement.
Givitas is the knowledge collaboration platform that cultivates knowledge sharing and harnesses collective intelligence. Givitas fosters a giving culture and drives positive business outcomes including employee efficiency, productivity, engagement, and loyalty.
The Reciprocity Ring is a dynamic event that groups or teams can do to bring the “pay-it-forward” concept into action and practice. Participants in Reciprocity Rings solve real problems, both personally and professionally, and they strengthen relationships in the process.
Our work is inspired and influenced by the award-winning work of our founding team.
