“Platinum Group produces this program in part to honor Platinum Group Founder Dean Bachelor, who passed away in 2021. Dean defined, and had trademarked, our firm’s mission of Meaningful Capitalism™,” says Platinum Group Partner Bill English. “Dean’s passion was to bring significant meaning to all stakeholders of every client we work with, and to drive their growth and success through capitalism. We recognize and appreciate seeing this same value in other companies, and that’s why we enjoy placing the spotlight on them through this awards program.”
The award distinguishes companies that live out Meaningful Capitalism by being…
- Consistently profitable;
- Proactive in helping their employees become better people and grow professionally;
- Donating a portion of their profits to improve the lives of individuals and/or organizations that promote dignity and respect for people and vibrant, healthy communities;
- Balancing well the competing interests of the various stakeholder groups; and
