Real Leaders® is a media platform and membership network “dedicated to inspiring the future of business.” To determine the businesses that appear on their annual list of top impact companies, Real Leaders accepts nominations in their search for privately-owned companies “making exceptional contributions to society and the planet.” Nominated companies are asked to provide information about their growth, revenue, and six different categories of impact, including Intention, Model, People, Accountability, Collaboration, and Transformation. In making their selection, Real Leaders considered the firm’s growth between 2020 and 2024 and the answers to the firm’s most recent B Impact Assessment which was completed in 2023.
