Saskatchewan's Best Managed Companies

At the YWCA Employment and Learning Centre, we encourage people to do research as a part of their job search.  One tool for research is the "Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies Program".
If a company is well managed it is probably a good place to work.....
Established in 1993, the Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies is a national awards program, recognizing Canadian companies that have implemented world-class business practices and created value in innovative ways. Applications are reviewed by an independent judging panel that evaluates how companies address various business challenges, including new technologies, globalization, brand management, leadership, leveraging and developing core competencies, designing information systems, and hiring the right talent to facilitate growth.

In Saskatchewan there is a similar program in which Deloitte ranks the best Saskatchewan companies.  In the Tuesday, June 25, 2013 Saskatoon StarPhoenix newspaper there was a supplement which featured "SASKATCHEWAN'S Class of 2012".

The following companies were recognized in these award categories:

Phase 2 finalists:
Simpson Seeds Inc.
