Abstrakt Marketing Group is proud to announce that we have once again been recognized as a finalist in the 2025 Inspiring Workplaces Awards for North America. This marks the fourth time Abstrakt has been named a finalist for being an Inspiring Workplace, further reinforcing our commitment to building a culture where employees thrive. Additionally, Abstrakt was honored in 2018 and 2019 when the awards were previously known as the Employee Engagement Awards.Â
“We are honored to be named a finalist for Inspiring Workplaces once again,” said Melanie Clark, Chief People Officer at Abstrakt Marketing Group. “A great workplace isn’t about what leadership builds—it’s about the people who bring it to life every day. This award belongs to our team members, whose commitment to each other and to our shared success continues to make Abstrakt a place where people want to grow and thrive.”Â

- Culture & PurposeÂ

Matt Manners, Founder of The Inspiring Workplaces Group, commented on the significance of this year’s awards saying, “Congratulations to all our finalists for the Inspiring Workplaces Awards across North America this year! At a time when the world faces increasing challenges, seemingly on a daily basis, it has never been more important for organizations – large and small – to put their PeopleFirst.”Â
