For the third year in a row, Arbor Acres has been honored with Drive’s prestigious World’s Best Culture Certification. This recognition empowers us to benchmark ourselves among the best workplace cultures worldwide, transcending the boundaries of senior living. It also recognizes Arbor Acres for our intentional effort to create a workplace that prioritizes our employees’ well-being and success.
“We are so pleased that our Artist feedback resulted in a third World’s Best Culture designation,” says Senior Director of Talent Arts Kathryn Sears. “Their service to our residents is what makes us unique, so we hope they continue to share their ideas to help us maintain and grow a culture informed by artistry and community.”
The process of attaining Drive’s World’s Best Culture certification calls for meeting key benchmarks using the globally acclaimed Barrett Values Centre’s Culture Values Assessment.
This prestigious certification spans across all industries and is bolstered by Barrett’s vast 25-year database and 4 million culture assessments, which includes companies such as Mastercard, CocaCola, Wegmans, Prudential, PWC, and Volvo. Drive is the leading user of the tool in aging services.
Drive’s World’s Best Culture Certification has tangible benefits for our Artists, residents, and their families. A positive and engaging workplace culture directly impacts employee satisfaction, engagement, and retention. Our team members feel empowered, valued, and motivated to deliver the highest quality of care and service. This, in turn, creates an environment where residents thrive, families feel confident in their loved ones’ well-being, and our community flourishes.
Earning the World’s Best Culture Certification is a steppingstone towards continuous improvement! We will use this recognition as inspiration to further enhance our workplace culture, refine our practices, and ensure that we consistently live up to the standards of excellence we have set. Our commitment to providing a remarkable employee experience remains unwavering, and this certification reaffirms our dedication to continuous growth and development.
