Best Employers is one of the most gratifying business awards a company can receive, because a company is only as good as its people. In order to get the best people in a field, and stand above the competition, it is crucial to have good employee benefits and practices. Good employee practices mean that employees feel utilized and can rely on their colleagues, or teammates. Most likely employees enjoy getting out of bed and heading to work each morning. This award is voted on by the employees, and means that they are satisfied with their benefits, their ability to move up within the company, the atmosphere, the communication amongst team members and management, as well as other factors, such as onsite daycare or fitness centers perhaps.

 

Similary, best business schools will also be awarded at ECON 2011. The top business schools are ranked based on value, reputation, and variety. In terms of value, students want the highest quality education for the money. The reputation category is easy: students want their business school to be competitive with other universities in terms of standards and accreditation. Lastly, course variety gives students the chance to try many facets of business and find the niche they fit best in.
