The ATD BEST Awards are the talent development industry's most rigorous and coveted recognition. Since 2003, the BEST Awards have recognized organizations that demonstrate enterprise-wide success through talent development. Applications were assessed in a rigorous blind review by members of the BEST Awards advisory committee comprising experts in the field.
"These 57 BEST organizations are driving impact and solving business challenges through talent development practices, and doing so in innovative ways," said Tony Bingham, ATD president and chief executive officer. "Senior leaders in these organizations understand the critical strategic role learning has, and they are committed to investing in the growth and development of their people."
