TECH STAFFING FIRM OPTOMI RECOGNIZED ON ENTREPRENEUR MAGAZINE’S 2017 TOP COMPANY CULTURES LIST
February 23, 2017

Optomi joined Entrepreneur’s 2017 Top Company Cultures list, a comprehensive ranking created in partnership with CultureIQ® of U.S.-based businesses exhibiting high-performance cultures. The award recognizes the tech staffing firm for creating an exceptional culture that drives employee engagement and directly impacts company success.

“As we stay true to our vision of creating a unique tech staffing firm with strong core values, we continue to build a company culture that appreciates its employees”, says Optomi Co-founder & COO Todd Black. “We’re genuine in our relationships and that’s a unique way to do business.”

By establishing this recognition, Entrepreneur Magazine honors companies in a wide span of industries that are creating vibrant, healthy and sustainable work environments through an effective culture. “Great company cultures don’t happen on their own. They’re the result of great leadership, and a conscious effort to make everyone on a team feel engaged and important,” says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur. “The honorees on our 2017 list are proof that strong cultures make even stronger companies. Entrepreneurs at all levels can draw inspiration from them.”

The rankings for all companies were determined using CultureIQ’s methodology for measuring high-performance cultures. Employees at each company received a survey of 21 questions. The answers were used to assess a company’s strength across 10 core qualities of culture – performance focus, support and innovation, to name a few. These quality strength scores were combined with the employee Net Promoter Score to create a cumulative CultureIQ Score. The companies with the highest CultureIQ Scores became the Top Company Culture list in ranking order. The full 2017 list can be found here.

For 20 years, a multinational healthcare services company relied on the outsourcing support of a managed services provider to fulfill their hiring needs.

They did not own any of the documentation or standard operating procedures in place in their own company, handcuffing them to their old vendor.
