Be Strong International has been selected as one of the best places to work at for the year 2023, by the renowned media outlet South Florida Business Journal. This award is granted to companies that make extraordinary efforts to maintain a happy and healthy work environment for their staffs.
As one of the most popular honors programs of the year, Best Places to Work typically attracts more than 500 attendees. This year, the exciting celebration will be held February 23rd. at the Signature Grand in Davie, FL, where the winners and honorees will detail what makes their workplace “the best”.
Each year, the Business Journal asks employees across the tri-county area why their companies should be named one of the Best Places to Work. Employees then fill out confidential online surveys rating their employers in a program developed by Quantum Workplace, which uses the data to arrive at the Top 60 companies we honor at the awards and in a special section based on their feedback.
“We are excited to have our organization honored with such a prestigious award. It validates the type of work we do when we invest in our people and our relationships with others. At Be Strong International it is paramount that we create and maintain an optimal culture within our staff. This is what we are all about, as we teach the importance of heart skills through healthy relationship education to youth and families in our community” said Michelle Shirley, CEO at Be Strong International. “To keep a healthy work environment, increase productivity, and change lives inside and outside the organization is a win-win for everyone.”
Be Strong International is at the forefront in the creation of tools to promote connection and social empathy, such as the new card game Social Yaks; which has proven to be a very successful tool to promote team building in corporations. For more information, please visit here
