Plenary lauded as one of Canada’s Most Admired Corporate Cultures

Plenary is thrilled and honoured to have been named one of Canada’s Most Admired™ Corporate Cultures for 2018. This national program annually recognizes best-in-class Canadian organizations for having cultures that enhance performance and help sustain a competitive advantage.

“Being named one of Canada’s Most Admired™ Corporate Cultures is a tremendous honour for our organization,” said Brian Budden, Plenary’s President & CEO. 

He added “Plenary has experienced exceptional growth over the past 13 years, but what has remained constant is our emphasis on employee culture, development and well-being. There is no doubt in my mind that the culture we’ve created together is at the heart of our success, and I’d like to congratulate and thank every member of our team for their contribution.”

The Canada’s Most Admired™ Corporate Cultures program was founded 15 years ago by Waterstone Human Capital, a leading cultural talent management firm.

“At Waterstone we believe corporate culture drives performance and that it’s your organization’s greatest asset,” said Marty Parker, President and Chief Executive Officer of Waterstone Human Capital and Chair of Canada’s Most Admired™ Corporate Cultures. “What’s notable about the 2018 winners is their commitment to culture as a competitive advantage. They set an outstanding example for cultivating and sustaining great cultures that ultimately drive growth and performance. This year’s winning organizations are to be admired for the diverse and impactful ways they ensure culture underpins their success.”

Corporate submissions are scored on six categories: vision and leadership, recruitment and hiring for fit, cultural alignment and measurement, retention, rewards and recognition, organizational performance and corporate social responsibility. Voting on the submissions is performed by the Canada’s Most Admired™ Corporate Cultures Board of Governors, which is entirely comprised of leaders from past winning organizations.

Congratulations to the entire Plenary team and thank you for making Plenary such an admired place to work.
