Culture & Purpose

Comment from the judges

CooperCompanies’ purpose of “helping people experience life’s beautiful moments” is embedded in its culture through family-focused benefits, engagement initiatives, and leadership-driven belonging. Wellbeing is prioritized with mental, physical, and financial support, while employee voice is integrated via surveys, town halls, and feedback mechanisms.
Comment from the judges

What stood out to me is the sheer size and reach of your company and the diverse cultures you are working in, which can’t make it easy to scale initiatives around the world. The fact that you had 84% of your 12k employees respond is phenomenal and speaks to the fact that you must act on their feedback.
