| Con-way Inc. named to Top 50 Most Admired Companies list Con-way Inc. named to Top 50 Most Admired Companies list

conway.......announced that it been named by Human Resource Executive magazine to its 2007 Top 50 Most Admired Companies list based on the findings of Hay Group, the consulting firm responsible for analyzing the rankings for Fortune magazine’s Most Admired Companies list.
Hay Group conducts an independent analysis of the rankings of Fortune’s list and recalibrates them based on specific human resource-related measures known as “attributes of reputation.” To be named to Human Resource Executive’s list, companies must demonstrate that their board of directors is actively engaged with management in the development of human capital initiatives.
Through its analysis of the list, Hay Group found a correlation between companies that are recognized as the most admired among their peers and companies that regularly report on human capital performance metrics and receive guidance from their boards on human capital management strategy.
“Con-way’s board of directors has been highly supportive of the company’s efforts to build a foundation of progressive human capital management programs and instill a culture that recognizes and rewards employee initiative, leadership and excellence,” says Leslie Lundberg, vice president of human resources for San Mateo, Calif.-based Con-way Inc. “It’s an honor for our human resources team — and our professional practices and programs — to be ranked among the best in the nation.” http://www.etrucker.com/apps/news/article.asp?id=69080 | |
