TORONTO, Oct. 27, 2021 /CNW/ - The Association for Talent Development (ATD) has recognized BMO Financial Group with a 2021 BEST Award. This year's honour marks BMO's fifth ATD award win; it is the only Canadian bank and one of only two Canadian companies to receive the award in 2021.
Distinguishing corporations that demonstrate enterprise-wide success through talent development, ATD's BEST Award is one of the industry's most rigorous and coveted recognitions. Winners include small and large, private, public, and not-for-profit organizations from around the world.
"We are honoured to be recognized, once again by ATD with a BEST award. The award showcases our Purpose to Boldly Grow the Good through a winning culture," said Karen Collins, Chief Talent Officer at BMO.
