The corporate culture surrounding the Winnipeg Airpots Authority has been recognized with an award.

Representatives from the James Richardson International Airport were in Toronto this week to accept an award for having one of Canada’s 10 Most Admired Corporate Cultures of 2014.

“Receiving awards that really validate the great work our team is doing is wonderful but winning an award is not our focus,” said Barry Rempel, president and CEO of Winnipeg Airports Authority.

“Our team is here to serve and we do that by having the right people in the right place, doing the right thing for our stakeholders. That’s what makes our team so special and our airport such a great place to work.”

The award distinguishes great workplaces where culture impacts performance as selected by a panel of experts based on several criteria.
