Nomination Form (On-Line)

 

New Company Assessments for "Best and Brightest" Participants

Helping to help companies gain a greater understanding of their standing in each category, the Michigan Business & Professional Association has added a new component this year - a basic assessment of a company's overall ranking in each category, which is covered by the nomination fee paid by each company. For those companies that desire an in-depth analysis, a comprehensive assessment individualized for a company in each of the human resource survey questions is available at an additional cost. This is a vital component in showing where a company stands out as a "best and brightest" and where improvements can be made.
