Congratulations on being named a Top Workplace!

Star Tribune Top Workplaces, now celebrating its 10th year, is the premier workplace recognition program in the state and is an excellent way for employers to build their brand, communicate workplace values, recruit new talent and retain current employees. Each year through our partner, Energage, employers are ranked based solely on scores generated by employee responses measuring engagement, organizational health and satisfaction. Only the top employers in each size category — small, medium and large — receive the special designation as a Top 150 Workplace and are invited to attend the luncheon. 

Again, congratulations on achieving this exceptional designation. We look forward to seeing you at the luncheon where you can celebrate your success and meet other companies named a Top 150 Workplace. 

Please register at the link above. Tickets are $75 per person or $750 for a table of 10.
