The National Association For Business Resources (NABR) program identifies and honors organizations that display a commitment to excellence in human resources and employee enrichment.
“Being recognized as a Best and Brightest Company to Work For is a tremendous honor,” said Bob Costanza, executive creative director and co-founder. “Our philosophy is to Be Brave, and by instilling this throughout our work and our culture, Scout cultivates an atmosphere that not only results in extraordinary work for our clients, but also drives motivation among our team.”
The Best and Brightest Companies to Work For™ competition, now in its fourth year in Atlanta, selects winners using an independent research firm, and based on key measures in various categories, including compensation, benefits and employee solutions; employee enrichment, employee education and development; employee achievement and recognition; communication and shared vision; diversity and inclusion; and work-life balance. Winning companies will be honored at an exclusive event on June 17, 2014.
“Hiring top talent is only the first step in creating a workplace environment that is among the very best,” continued Constanza. “To be the very best, we not only say we encourage innovation, we have institutionalized an innovation laboratory into the Scout culture, The Golden Lab.”
The Golden Lab fosters ongoing creativity through a holistic program of immersion and ideation at all levels. Among the components of the Golden Lab is the adoption of a 70/20/10 rule for time allocation: 70 percent on client business; 20 percent on tasks that improve the ability to manage client business successfully; and a full 10 percent devoted to thinking new thoughts, ideas and concepts.
