Top 50 Employers for African Americans 2011 - "Best of the Best"

Each year, Olive Tree Publishing, Inc. (OTP) and it's three diversity magazines conduct select evaluations of the nation’s Employers, Supplier Programs, Healthcare Providers, Pharmaceutical/Biotech Companies, Colleges, Universities, MBA Schools, Financial Institutions, Corporations by Industry, Law Enforcement, and Government Agencies. The evaluations also integrate findings by each magazine independently to identify "Best of the Best" in relation to outreach and accessibility to the African American population.

The goal of the annual evaluations is not only to bring the latest information and guidance to our readers, but also encourage active outreach and diversity policies among corporations and government agencies. The studies are further designed to assist corporate and government leaders in evaluating their ranking by comparing and contrasting to their peers the success achieved within their industries and their measurement in diversity.
