What Customers have to say:
 

We shifted from fragmented, frustrated, stagnant, and complacent to highly engaged, collaborative, connected and high-performing
 

“People want to work here now!” 

Keen drastically changed our culture for the better. In the beginning, we couldn’t pay people enough to come work for us. Now, we have a booming culture and a great reputation in the industry. This changed when the vocabulary opened up, and the wrong people got off the bus. There’s nothing more exciting than creating a better future. 

—Lauren Monack, Director of Administration and Finance, Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority, San Jose, CA
