FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Top Talent Award Goes to OhioGuidestone
Berea, Ohio, August 23, 2024 – OhioGuidestone has once again been honored with a top workplace award from Employers Resource Council (ERC). The ERC named OhioGuidestone a 2024 NorthCoast 99 award winner for the 2nd consecutive year.
The prestigious NorthCoast 99 award honors 99 great Northeast Ohio workplaces for top talent. OhioGuidestone President and CEO, Brant Russell said “to receive this award once was an honor, to receive it a second time is even better because it reaffirms the impact we are making on not just the lives of our clients, but the lives of our employees as well. Despite the challenging, emotional nature of their job they show up every day with fresh enthusiasm and innovative ideas to make life better for our clients.”
“Twenty-six years ago, ERC launched the NorthCoast 99 awards program and event to help our region become a prime destination for companies and high-performing individuals,” said Samantha Marx, ERC’s Director of Strategic Projects, who oversees the NorthCoast 99 program. “Beyond being a sought-after accolade, this yearlong research initiative offers employers valuable insights and data into policies and practices that successfully attract and retain top talent.”
NorthCoast 99 winners participated in a rigorous application process that asked for detailed information on how their organization addresses top-performer attraction, development, and retention in the areas of diversity, equity, and inclusion; employee engagement and talent development; employee well-being; organizational strategy, policies, and benefits; talent attraction, acquisition, and onboarding; and total rewards.
“Winning NorthCoast 99 is not easy. This group of 99 employers is constantly evolving, listening, and responding to the needs and desires of today’s talent. We commend the 2024 winners for setting a benchmark for excellence,” said ERC President Kelly Keefe.
The 2024 NorthCoast 99 awards program is sponsored by Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield; Berman Moving & Storage; CIBC; Cleveland Magazine; ERChealth; Maloney + Novotny; Meyers, Roman, Friedberg & Lewis; Oswald Companies; Staffing Solutions Enterprises; and WKYC Studios.
