  • Search Influence Receives 2021 New Orleans Top Workplaces Award from The Times-Picayune and The New Orleans Advocate

    Top Workplaces 2021 Nola Times Picayune Search Influence award graphicFor the second year in a row, Search Influence has been named a winner of the New Orleans Top Workplaces Award by The Times-Picayune and The New Orleans Advocate. Search Influence is among a list of 70 independently selected private, public, non-profit and government entities selected for the 2021 awards. The rankings of the companies in their respective categories will be announced at an awards ceremony later this year.

    Top Workplaces awards are based solely on feedback captured from one, five-minute employee engagement survey. There are no subjective elements to the process, making Top Workplaces the most credible, authentic employer recognition program. Any organization in the seven-parish metro area with 35 or more employees was eligible to compete this year.

    Search Influence prioritizes its company culture, embedding its values into communication, client work, and internal recognition and evaluation. The company weaves these values into their recruitment process, which ensures that all who join align with Search Influence’s vision.

    Search Influence’s core values spell CHARGED:

    • Collaborative
    • Hungry
    • Agile
    • Reliable
    • Genuine
    • Effective
    • Dedicated

    The trend from last year’s survey continued, with the team emphasizing transparency and culture as two key reasons they appreciate working at Search Influence. Team members responded positively about the support they receive from managers to learn and grow, as well as their manager’s care for their concerns. Additional aspects of the company highly rated by employees include: interdepartmental cooperation, appreciation of fellow teammates and the encouragement of new ideas.

    “We are very pleased to be included in Top Workplaces for the second year in a row,” said Search Influence CEO and Co-founder Will Scott, “We value Top Workplaces because the award and rankings are based on empirical data. In a year which has been so hard for so many, we’re glad to know our team still felt like they were both challenged and supported.”

    This is the seventh year of the New Orleans award, which is facilitated by Energage, a third-party company who conducts a quantitative and qualitative assessment of nominated organizations.

    Search Influence is honored to be recognized as a Top Workplace in the small companies category.

    This is the 6th year of the New Orleans award, which is powered by Energage, a third party company who conducts a quantitative and qualitative assessment of nominated companies.

    For this year’s award, Energage surveyed 32,694 employees in the Greater New Orleans area to measure satisfaction across 15 culture drivers.

    “In times of great change, it is more important than ever to maintain a connection among employees,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. “When you give your employees a voice, you come together to navigate challenges and shape your path forward based on real-time insights into what works best for your organization. The Top Workplaces program can be that positive outcome your company can rally around in the coming months to celebrate leadership and the importance of maintaining an employee-focused culture, even during challenging times.”

    Search Influence has invested significantly in company culture over the last several years in an effort to create an engaged and effective team that produces the results we and our clients expect from our work.

    The two things that stood out in our survey were Search Influence’s transparency and core values. Our team truly knows and understands our values, and most importantly, lives by them.

    Our company’s core values, which spell CHARGED:

    • Collaborative
    • Hungry
    • Agile
    • Reliable

    • Keeping our core values alive in the organization
    • Communication & transparency
    • Clear feedback mechanisms
    • Benefits and perks that allow our team to balance their priorities across personal and work life

    “This is a place to learn, grow, develop professionally, and help businesses/non-profits and the like market themselves and grow. The company values employees and the benefits package makes it possible for people to ‘work to live’ not ‘live to work.’ ”
