WHAT MAKES A HEALTHY COMPANY ALL-STAR?

The prestigious list of Healthy Company All-Stars includes organizations from around the globe that have shown unwavering commitment to CHANGE THE GAME by doing business differently through creating a winning workplace culture that delivers industry-leading financial performance and best-in-class employee engagement.

Healthy Company All-Stars Exemplify the Following:

  • HEALTHY FINANCES: To be considered financially healthy, a company must meet or beat its industry averages as measured by financial ratios such as profit growth, cash generation, asset utilization, and return on investment.

  • HEALTHY CULTURE: The second measurement that organizations must pass is the level of employee engagement and how well they embrace the principles and practices of The Game as determined by the results of their company-wide surveys.

  • HEALTHY PEOPLE: The third measurement involves a People Scorecard filled out by the company highlighting programs designed to reward and teach their associates. Additionally, companies were interviewed about their policies and practices related to employee well-being and future investment.
