The World Value Index was created based on a nationally representative, comprehensive survey of 4,000 Americans on perception, awareness and behaviors in response to the purpose and mission of organizations and brands. enso commissioned Quadrant Strategies, a research-driven consultancy that works with Fortune 100 and Fortune 50 companies, political leaders around the world and major nonprofits, to field surveys with various demographic representative samples of the U.S. populations ages 18 and up.
The 20 audience demographics and psychographics surveyed include the general population, elites (people who are college educated and earn more than $100,000 per year), millennials and Gen Z, Gen X, Baby Boomers, moms, dads, future concerned, young and social, female, male, environmental advocates, traditionalists, multiculturalists, Democrats, Republicans, Independents, class aware, race aware, and gender aware.
” Creating value in the world today is not just about selling things, but also inspiring people around a greater mission,” said Sebastian Buck, enso’s Co-founder and strategic lead. ” By doing this research, we aim to shed new light on value creation, and prompt reflection and debate on how organizations like Goodwill create enduring value for the world.”
