MIAMI – June 5, 2025 – Foundever®, a global leader in the customer experience (CX) industry, today announced that it has been named among the Top 10 Inspiring Workplaces 2025 for the Asian region by Inspiring Workplaces Group (IW). Unlike other awards that primarily depend on survey completion, entrants for the Inspiring Workplaces Awards were required to demonstrate their commitment to investing in their workforce. This was achieved by submitting an entry form that encompasses six key elements deemed essential by Inspiring Workplaces for cultivating a PeopleFirst culture and, consequently, an Inspiring Workplace. These foundational elements are:
- Culture and Purpose
- Leadership
- Wellbeing
- Inclusion
- Employee Voice
- Employee Experience
Each of the six key elements were evaluated independently for special recognition in their respective disciplines. Organizations of varying sizes and across different industries participated in categories defined by their workforce size. The Top 10 winners were selected by an independent panel of expert judges.
“We are so proud to receive this prestigious award, which recognizes our commitment to nurturing a people-centric culture at Foundever,” said Michelle Parks, CEO of the U.S. Market for Foundever. “This acknowledgment highlights the hard work and dedication of our exceptional teams across Asia, including the Philippines, India, Malaysia, China, New Zealand and Australia, in building a workplace where every employee feels valued and empowered. We firmly believe that investing in our people is essential for driving innovation and achieving remarkable results. This award reinforces our mission to create an environment that promotes growth, collaboration and success for everyone within our organization.”
In addition to being named among the Top 10 Inspiring Workplaces for 2025 in the Asian region, Foundever also received best-in-class special recognition for these specific areas:
- Inspiring Employee Experience
- Inspiring Inclusion
- Inspiring Wellbeing
“As Inspiring Workplaces marks its 10th anniversary, we’re proud to recognize organizations that are setting the gold standard for PeopleFirst cultures,” said Matt Manners, Founder, The Inspiring Workplaces Group. “This isn’t just a feel-good approach, it’s a fundamental business strategy. With AI reshaping the way we work, companies that continue to prioritize profit over people may find themselves facing short-term wins but long-term setbacks. PeopleFirst isn’t optional. It’s essential.”
