Our Community - Best Practice Institute
The CEOs, CHROs, and culture leaders building Most Loved Workplaces® — the community behind BPI's certification, SPARK research, and Top 100 lists.
Our Community
Best Practice Institute today is the research and certification organization behind the Most Loved Workplace® program. Our community is the global network of CEOs, CHROs, Heads of Talent, Employer Brand, and Culture leaders building workplaces employees genuinely love — and the practitioners, researchers, and faculty who help them get there.
Who's in the community
- CEOs and founders who treat culture as a performance system, not a poster
- CHROs and senior HR executives at certified and aspiring Most Loved Workplaces®
- Heads of Talent, Employer Brand, and Culture using SPARK to sharpen recruiting, retention, and reputation
- Top 100 honorees — the Global (featured in The Economist) and America's (featured in the Wall Street Journal) lists
- BPI faculty, researchers, and expert contributors publishing on culture, leadership, and the employee experience
What the community is built around
Everything BPI does now flows through Most Loved Workplace® and the SPARK framework — Systemic Collaboration, Positive Vision, Alignment of Values, Respect, and Killer Achievement. Our community uses it as a common language for what makes a workplace genuinely loved, scored against the largest dataset of its kind: 2.8 million employees and 1,800+ companies analyzed.
Why leaders engage
- Certification that means something — employee-validated, SPARK-scored, and eligible for the Top 100
- Benchmarks against the best workplaces in the world — not generic engagement averages
- Editorial reach through The Economist, Wall Street Journal, and BPI's owned channels
- Workplace Reports and CEO interviews that make their culture story credible and discoverable
- Peer exchange with other CEOs and CHROs operating at the same altitude
Measurable outcomes
- 92% of candidates apply because a company is Most Loved Workplace® certified
- 4× higher performance in certified organizations
- 48% lower turnover in certified organizations
Corporate participation
Most organizations engage at the company level: certification, the annual employee survey, SPARK scorecard, Top 100 eligibility, and ongoing employer-branding work. Faculty, expert contributors, and researchers participate individually through publications, webinars, and the CEO and expert repositories.
