GBA Selected as One of the 'Best Companies to Work For'

Ingram’s magazine has selected GBA as one of the “Best Companies to Work For” in the Kansas City area in 2010. The recognition was announced in the May issue of the publication, which noted that all of the selected companies share a few common traits that elevate them from good to great. According to Ingram’s, “The thread running through this year’s winners – as with past honorees – is that the leadership collectively understands the need to help employees strike a balance in their lives. A great workplace, then, is about more than just work.” 

The article notes that GBA employees enjoy “fun, focus, and fraternity.”

The fun “comes from a corporate culture that engages 180 employees of the company…with special-event potlucks, birthday celebrations, ice-cream socials and sports leagues.”

The focus “comes from a wide range of career-development initiatives meant to improve on client services and staff skill-building.”

And fraternity is “expressed in an array of community-service, volunteer and fund-raising efforts that help set the Lenexa-based company apart.”
