The Best in Business Awards list, which can be found in the winter issue of Inc. magazine (on newsstands Dec. 14), recognizes small- and medium-size privately held American businesses that have had an outstanding influence on their communities, their industries, the environment, or society as a whole, the magazine announced.
Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc., says, “What began for us during the pandemic as an effort to showcase companies that were helping the community has grown into a recognition of social, environmental, and economic impact. The companies on this year’s list are changemakers with heart — and they’re pouring the best of their business into the people and communities around them.”
Rather than relying on quantitative criteria tied to sales or funding, Inc.’s editors reviewed the companies’ achievements over the past year and noted how they made a positive difference in the world. They then selected honorees in more than 49 different industries – from finance to software to engineering to fashion, and more – and in age-based and revenue-based categories. The applicant pool was extremely competitive, with around 2,700 entries and an acceptance rate in the low single digits – a huge success for these honors in the list’s second year. Honorees for gold, silver, bronze, and general excellence across industries and categories are featured online at inc.com/best-in-business.
Holiday decorations can leave behind a lot of mess and unnecessary damage. Here are four tips for decorating without damaging your home. Christmas tree stands made out of metal or hard plastic can cause serious damage to your floors. To avoid this, place your tree in a large basket or put a piece of plywood under the stand. Use removable, self-adhesive hooks instead of nails or screws when hanging decorations. When hanging decorations on your windows, use hooks that attach to the glass with suction cups. Avoid fire hazards by checking that all electrical wires are in good condition before plugging in your Christmas lights
