About the Gallup Great Workplace Award
The award's weight and design equal the merit of the winners' accomplishments. To create the award, Gallup designers collaborated with R.S.Owens & Company, the company that produces many of the world's most prestigious awards, including the Academy Award. The award consists of two components: The top design features 12 etched crystal planes, layered to convey the kinetic energy of an engaged workforce. The crystal sits atop a concave-shaped pedestal base composed of polished silver-plated legs and a satin finish front display. The combination of these parts results in a piece that evokes the nature of engagement.
