Crestcom Recognized as a 2024 Top Franchise for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion by Entrepreneur Magazine

Greenwood Village, CO – May 8, 2024 – Crestcom International was recently picked as a 2024 Top 100 Franchise for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion by Entrepreneur Magazine. Part of Entrepreneur’s annual franchisor rankings, this category was created to honor brands that recognize the value of promoting DEI at the corporate level and within their franchisee ranks. 

Entrepreneur Magazine’s franchise lists are primarily created by gathering data and ranking brands based on the results. However, because diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts can be challenging to quantify, companies on this list were chosen editorially and listed alphabetically instead of numerically. 

Several factors were considered to determine which brands were recognized, including: 

• Incentives offered to franchisees from underrepresented groups,
• Diversity among franchisees,
• Diversity within the leadership team, 
• Other company initiatives or programs related to DEI. 

Crestcom continuously demonstrates a commitment to advancing the cause of international franchising and positively impacts communities worldwide. With over 35 years in the leadership development business, Crestcom has established a global network of franchisees across 60 countries. Crestcom offers leadership development training programs in multiple languages, facilitated in-person or virtually, to reach as many communities as possible. 

Crestcom’s core leadership development program features subject matter experts from various backgrounds and includes modules that focus on creating an inclusive workplace and overcoming unconscious biases. 

Crestcom was also recognized as a 2024 Top Franchise for Less than $100,000 by Entrepreneur Magazine and as a 2024 Top 20 Leadership Training Company by Training Industry, a leading authority in corporate learning and development. The International Stevie Awards® have also recognized Crestcom for six consecutive years in the Company of the Year, Business or Professional Services category.
