Ahola Honored as 2023 Smart Culture Award Winner by Smart Business

Ahola Payroll & HR Solutions has been selected by the judging panel as one of the 2023 Smart Culture Awards Honorees!

The judges were impressed with Ahola's nomination and proven ability to develop a great culture. Since 2017, the Smart Culture Conference & Awards explores how culture can become an asset to drive performance, transform your organization into an employer-of-choice and ultimately impact the bottom line. This evening conference features an awards program honoring local organizations that have demonstrated cutting-edge practices in sustaining a Smart Culture as well as in-depth presentations from experts who are leading the way.

"Our efforts in employee engagement, our focus and intention on building a strong positive culture, and our continuous improvement with our total rewards and benefits have directly impacted our employee retention, talent acquisition, and our internal Net Promoter Score, said Sonya Ahola, Director of Marketing & HR Consulting at Ahola. "Our company culture and employee engagement has also led to record company revenues and profitability in 2022. We know that engaged employees provide better service to our clients and to each other and contribute to our overall profitability."

Each year, Ahola surveys our employees and request their feedback on their level of engagement, our overall benefits packages, and their likelihood to remain at the company. We then take these scores and plan our internally programming around them.

On Thursday April 13, Ahola will be honored at the Smart Culture Conference. We are expecting a crowd of over 300 business leaders in attendance for this conference and awards ceremony.
