Avery Dennison Corporation has been named one of North America's Top Companies for Leaders. Sponsored by global human resources services company Hewitt Associates, in partnership with The RBL Group and FORTUNE magazine, the Top Companies for Leaders in North America were selected and ranked by an esteemed panel of judges based on criteria including leadership practices, company reputation, leadership culture and values and business performance.

Based in Pasadena, Calif., Avery Dennison is a global leader in pressure-sensitive labeling materials, retail tag, ticketing and branding systems, and office products, employing more than 30,000 people in 51 countries. Avery Dennison was ranked tenth out of more than 200 companies in the survey of North America's Top Companies for Leaders.

When comparing the Top Companies for Leaders in North America with more than 200 other companies in North America, Hewitt reported that it found one overarching characteristic that set companies in this list apart from the rest-Top Companies in North America make leadership a critical part of the company's organizational fabric.

Specifically, the study found that leadership practices at Top Companies in North America are an inherent part of the culture, and that developing future leaders is simply a way of operating that must be intertwined with running the business.
