Launching the GEA Standard: Your Path to Operational Brilliance

New York, USA - May 6, 2024 — Today, the Global Excellence Assembly (GEA) launches the GEA Standard, an innovative framework designed to transform organizational excellence on a global scale. Integrating key Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, this standard aims to lead businesses toward sustainable and ethically responsible practices.

The GEA Standard offers a comprehensive blueprint for organizations across various industries—corporate enterprises, government agencies, and non-profits—encouraging alignment with the highest sustainability, ethics, and governance standards. It serves as a vital tool for those committed to positive impact and responsible corporate conduct.

Structured around eight pivotal dimensions, the Standard empowers organizations to enhance their operational effectiveness and drive strategic outcomes, thereby improving compliance, sustainability, and client satisfaction. This holistic approach not only aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) but also provides a scalable and adaptable framework to meet diverse organizational needs and ambitions.

"The GEA Standard marks a critical milestone in our mission to promote excellence and integrate ESG principles into core business strategies globally," said Dr. Goodman, President of GEA. "It is more than just a set of guidelines—it is a movement towards better business practices."

Organizations looking to elevate their operational frameworks will find robust support from GEA, including extensive training, workshops, and certification opportunities designed to foster sustainable growth and operational excellence.

Business Excellence: A Set of Principles and Guidelines

These processes should ensure that all stakeholders are involved in decision making at all levels and that information flows freely between departments.Achieving high levels of performance requires an organizational culture focused on continuous improvement as well as an environment where employees are encouraged to take ownership over their own development by learning from each other and improving their skills regularly through training sessions or workshops sponsored by management teams themselves.

Simplicity is about subtracting the obvious and adding the meaningful.

Gender Equality: A Fundamental Human Right!

In the employment realm, laws and workplace policies that exclude women from certain job sectors and allow them to be forced out of the workplace when they become pregnant or return to work after having a baby cause persistent disparities in women’s income, wealth, and economic security.Survivors of gender-based violence face discrimination when police, schools, landlords, and other institutions fail to adequately address and prevent violence and also when laws and policies penalize them, impeding the ability of women and girls to live safely and with dignity.
