Denmark's Best Managed Companies

Recognising Danish business excellence. Denmark's Best Managed Companies is a programme to recognise privately owned and controlled Danish companies setting the highest standards of business performance.

The Best Managed Companies programme is a competition to 
recognise the overall success of strong private owned companies based on strategic direction, ability to execute, corporate culture and financial performance.

Is your company best-in-class?

What

The Best Managed Companies Award is a programme recognising excellence in Danish companies. The programme looks into how Danish companies master their growth strategies across all key management functions, and it culminates with a big awards ceremony to celebrate the organisational success and achievement. The Best Managed Companies Award is a part of a global initiative already present in Sweden, Canada, Mexico, Ireland, Chile, Belgium and the Netherlands. The designation is a well regarded international stamp of quality for best managed private companies.

Why

Danish owned and managed companies are the backbone of our economy and the cornerstone of our local society. We want to recognize and celebrate the hard work, the passion, and the pioneering ideas that emanate from the Danish mid market.

Additional to the hard-earned recognition, the participants will receive an independent view of their business from coaches who provide insight and feedback to help leaders benchmark their business against other businesses. The programme provides a distinct framework for management teams to challenge themselves and the overall process results in key take-aways that can be used to sharpen strategies and further strengthen the company.
