Associa Recognized Again as a Top Workplace in U.S. and Canada
DALLAS, Texas, Sept. 2, 2025 — Associa, the leading firm in community management, has proudly announced its recognition as a Great Place to Work® Certified™ company for the ninth consecutive year in the United States and the sixth consecutive year in Canada. This accolade highlights Associa’s commitment to fostering a positive workplace culture, emphasizing its dedication to the well-being and growth of its employees.
With 75% of Associa team members affirming their satisfaction with their work environment—18 points higher than the average U.S. company—this recognition is not just an award; it reflects a thriving workplace built on mutual respect. Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place to Work, pointed out that such accolades require "consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," underscoring Associa’s role as a leader in cultivating a high-trust workplace.
The significance of this recognition also touches on biblical principles of community and stewardship. In Philippians 2:4, we are reminded, “Let each of you look not only to his own interests but also to the interests of others.” Associa exemplifies this through its efforts to ensure employee well-being, creating a culture where individuals feel valued, respected, and inspired to contribute.
Notably, Great Place To Work research indicates that job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss in certified workplaces. Employees are not only more optimistic about their roles but also more likely to feel fairly compensated and eagerly anticipate coming to work. Such insights serve as reminders of the importance of nurturing positive relationships and a supportive environment, echoing the teachings of Jesus regarding love and community.
"We believe our people are the foundation of our success,” said John Carona, CEO and founder of Associa. His acknowledgment of the team’s efforts resonates with the Christian principle of community building, where fostering a safe and welcoming atmosphere allows everyone to flourish.
As Associa continues to grow, its commitment to enhancing both community and workplace culture invites others to reflect on their values and practices. Such exemplary approaches not only honor the employees but also create stronger, more cohesive communities.

As followers of Christ, let us aspire to cultivate spaces where everyone feels cherished and supported, reminding us that, “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others” (1 Peter 4:10).
Let us reflect on how we might embody these principles in our own lives, fostering environments rooted in respect, collaboration, and care.
