“Being named one of Canada’s Most Admired Corporate Cultures has been an enormous accomplishment for our team at FISPAN. This recognition has not only highlighted the importance of our people-centric initiatives, but it will also continue to encourage us to provide the support that allow our employees to succeed in and outside of the workplace. In addition to our award, having access to the Most Admired Corporate Cultures network has enabled us to meet other companies with the most exceptional cultures across the country. This network will be a key contributor for FISPAN to build upon our cultural foundation and leverage the relationships, resources, and support we’ve been grateful to receive”

“Being recognized twice as one of Canada’s Most AdmiredTM Corporate Cultures (2017 and 2020) is a great source of pride for us at Odlum Brown. Beyond simply believing that our corporate culture is special, we have a tangible achievement to celebrate with our team, and the opportunity to connect with and learn from a community of other inspiring organizations has been immensely valuable. Participating in the Canada’s Most AdmiredTM Corporate Cultures program has truly become an important part of how we see ourselves as a firm, and an aspect of our value proposition to clients and team members alike. I would encourage any organization who believes in the crucial role of corporate culture to take part.”
