Leading Diversity Publisher Names Worldwide Lodging Franchisor among Best of the Best
Choice Hotels International, Inc. is pleased to announce its recent recognition as the 2009 Top Franchise for Excellence in Diversity, as selected by Oliver Tree Publishing, Inc., proud publishers of the Black EOE Journal, Hispanic Network Magazine and Professional Woman’s Magazine.
The company’s Excellence in Diversity award comes as part of the publisher’s 2009 “Best of the Best” Annual Review Series, now in its 18th year. This annual evaluation sets the standard for identifying corporations that are providing the best career opportunities for minorities and serves as an evaluation of corporate America’s career advancement opportunities for minorities. Choice Hotels was selected as an award recipient from among 900 of the most prominent corporations in the United States.
“To receive this recognition on the heels of being named one of the top 50 franchises for minorities is truly special,” said Brian Parker, vice president of emerging markets and new business development for Choice Hotels. “We do not underestimate the value that diversity creates for our business and will continue to raise the bar.”
The selection and evaluation process for the prestigious program recognition consists of performing extensive non-biased studies in the areas of diversity employment, supplier diversity, and corporations by industry. These studies included the evaluation of data from independent research organizations, market research reports, public information, 10-K annual reports, survey responses and interviews.
