“Being recognized as a Best Managed company in Canada a decade ago was a huge achievement for Morrison,” says Dave Gladney, president and CEO of Morrison Homes. “Being recognized this many years in a row is absolutely exceptional and is a true testament to what can be achieved when we hold fast to our values and put our customers first.” Morrison has been building in Alberta since 1961 and is one of a handful of homebuilders in Alberta to win this award. “I thank all of our team members, as well as our trade and industry partners for their unwavering commitment, effort and teamwork. This level of business success could not have been achieved without them,” continues Gladney.
“Best Managed Platinum winners have exceptional insights and knowledge into business management practices. They are an inspiration and really take their game to a new level,” said Lorrie King, Partner, Deloitte and Co-Leader, Canada’s Best Managed Companies program. “It’s much more than just financial performance. The ingredients to success also include overall business performance and sustained growth. It takes dedication and commitment from the entire organization.”
Now in its 26th year, Canada’s Best Managed Companies is one of the country’s leading business awards programs recognizing Canadian-owned and managed companies for innovative, world-class business practices. Every year, hundreds of entrepreneurial companies compete for this designation in a rigorous and independent process that evaluates the calibre of their management abilities and practices.
The Best Managed program is sponsored by Deloitte, CIBC, Canadian Business, Smith School of Business, TMX Group and MacKay CEO Forums.
