Remember the days when that once-so-cutting edge phrase first began surfacing?
“Our employees are our most valuable assets.”
Thankfully, talk like that has largely been relegated to that big bin of clichés.
But that doesn’t mean the very best employers in the Atlanta area have dismissed the underlying energy that underscores the power and persuasion of creating a dynamic place to work.
Or, as we prefer, the Best and Brightest Companies to Work For.
The fact is, especially in an increasingly robust economy, being an outperforming employer still makes a difference when it comes to being able to attract and retain those with in-demand skills.
The winners represented in this year’s group of Atlanta companies honored certainly know it.
People, after all, have a choice of where to spend the one-third (or more) of their life that focuses on work, making the decision of where that time will be spent a joint one, with benefits, work conditions, atmosphere and culture all becoming part of the equation.
Many employers on this year’s list, you will discover, are familiar ones, having dedicated themselves to not only earn a coveted selection but also retaining that position in a competitive environment.
And others are newcomers, having achieved a goal for which they can truly be proud.
But regardless of the individual area of expertise the winners represent, one thing remains clear: They have set themselves apart from the competition by the very nature of how they treat those who work there.
The reality is that spirit of community in the workplace reflects itself in how clients are treated.
In short, treat me well and I’ll be sure to do the same for our customers.
The smart firms surely know it. And so do their competitors, although perhaps not with the same level of clarity.
Our bottom line, and one we’re proud to share with our readers, is that being a standout company—a member of one of the most coveted lists going—does make a difference, an enduring one, for those who recognize the power it represents.
