Announcing the 2022 Canada's Most Admired Corporate Culturestm and Canada's Most Admired CEOtm Winners
TORONTO, Nov. 24, 2022 /CNW/ - Waterstone Human Capital, Canada's leading cultural talent management firm, has announced the 2022 winners of the Canada's Most Admired Corporate Culturestm and Canada's Most Admired CEOtm program. This national program recognizes best-in-class Canadian organizations and CEOs for fostering high performance corporate cultures that help sustain a competitive advantage.
Organizations and CEOs are recognized as national winners in categories including Enterprise, Mid-Market, Growth, Emerging, and the Broader Public Sector. In 2022, for only the second time since the Canada's Most Admired CEO Award was introduced in 2014, the Board of Governors voted to present the Lifetime Achievement Award, recognizing leaders who have made an exemplary contribution to corporate culture over the course of their careers.
"At Waterstone we know corporate culture drives performance and that it's an organization's greatest asset," says Marty Parker, President and CEO of Waterstone Human Capital and Chair of the Canada's Most Admiredtm program. "The 2022 award recipients demonstrate that putting culture at the center of strategy drives growth and accelerates performance. This year's winners are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and their focus on employee engagement and culture measurement is driving extraordinary results."
In working with culture-focused organizations like this year's award winners, Waterstone has seen the commitment to making culture a competitive advantage help companies: more than double their revenue; quadruple their EBITA CAGR; increase their revenue CAGR; improve their eNPS year over year; and strengthen their recruitment and engagement.
"This year's winning organizations actively craft high-performance cultures and serve as an inspiration for others who want to do the same," says Parker. "On behalf of Waterstone Human Capital and our partners, we look forward to celebrating this year's winners and the impact culture is having on their success."
