Since Monday I've been blogging about our big news of the year (so far): the announcement of Winning Workplaces' 2010 Top Small Company Workplaces in the new, June issue of Inc. Magazine.  On Monday I shared ROI metrics that support their investment in innovative people practices.  And yesterday I discussed two quantitative data points where the winners clearly stood above the finalists: employee tenure and turnover.

Today I want to shift the focus to what our media partner, Inc. Magazine, has for reader value-adds, related to their coverage of our 2010 winners, when it comes to best practices for a more productive workplace.  Click through below to access:

• An audio slideshow about PortionPac Chemical Corporation, which is based in our hometown of Chicago
• A graphic of effective office perks Inc. compiled from their Twitter followers and Facebook fans
• And (I think best of all) a quiz to help you determine your workplace culture

While I'm talking about Inc., I want to take a moment to thank their staff for being such great partners.  The above offerings that they went above and beyond to produce – not at our behest – in connection with their June issue, and the feedback of their lead writer on what stood out about this year's honorees as she was writing the articles for the issue, show that they really get the payoff of employee engagement for small employers.

Stay tuned for more posts to follow on powerful employee practices and trends of this year's winners.  You can help this blog have more impact by sharing it with your colleagues and friends using the Share button below.
