OAKBROOK TERRACE, Ill., Nov. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- The Chicagoland Chamber of
Commerce has recognized Geneca for its exemplary workplace with the receipt of
its Workplace Excellence Award. This award was created by the Chamber of
Commerce and Right Management to honor companies that work with imagination
and conviction to create environments that support professional and business
growth.  

Geneca, best known for its Getting Predictable(SM) approach to software
development, has experienced steady growth over the past decade and continues
to distinguish itself with a workplace that emphasizes employee development
and recognition, work-life balance, and community giving.  Award recipients
were judged on human resources best practices that create value and positive
impact for their business and workforce.

"No company, small or large, can be competitive without employees who are
committed to the mission of the company," states Geneca President and Chief
Culture Officer, Joel Basgall.  "Our particular HR practices have been
designed to give people a sense of purpose. We go the extra mile to help
people feel excited about Geneca's success. We've found that this kind of
connection has given many of our employees the impetus to directly contribute
to company success."

During 2009, Geneca implemented several new HR practices, including the launch
of a formalized internal training program, Geneca University. Designed and
staffed by Geneca employees, Geneca University currently has over 40 courses,
including sessions on development best practices, certification training,
project management, and new Microsoft technologies.  Geneca also received the
101Best and Brightest Places to Work in Chicago award in 2009 for the third
consecutive year. 

Geneca was honored along with Harris Bank, KPMG, and Hyatt Regency Chicago.
The winners were announced at the Chicagoland Workplace Excellence Awards
Forum on Oct. 29.
