CultureAlly has been named the 41st fastest-growing company in Canada on The Globe and Mail's 2026 list of Top Growing Companies, following a 719% increase in revenue from 2022 to 2025. The company also secured the No. 2 spot in the Educational Services category, according to a press release. This recognition highlights not only CultureAlly's rapid ascent but also the growing importance of workplace learning and development in a rapidly changing business environment.
Founded in 2021, CultureAlly has partnered with more than 1,000 organizations and reached over 100,000 learners across the United States, Canada, and internationally through corporate training, eLearning, and leadership development. The company's focus on soft skills, communication, and leadership has resonated with organizations seeking to strengthen their workplace cultures. "Seeing CultureAlly at No. 41 is a pretty incredible moment for us," said Ashley Kelly, founder and CEO of CultureAlly. "We started this company five years ago, and I'm proud of the team whose hard work brought us here. What excites me now is how much more we can do with the organizations that trust us. Stronger workplace cultures help people do their best work, and that shows up in how a business performs. That's the kind of impact we want to keep growing."
The implications of this ranking extend beyond a single company's success. It signals that businesses are increasingly investing in human capital—specifically in the interpersonal and leadership skills that drive collaboration and productivity. Clients that initially engaged CultureAlly for a single training need have returned with new challenges, leading to longer relationships and broader work across workplace communication, leadership, and soft skills development. This pattern suggests a shift in how organizations view training: not as a one-time fix but as an ongoing strategic imperative.
Andrew Saunders, president and CEO of The Globe and Mail, noted that the ranked companies demonstrate "an extraordinary ability to adapt, innovate and grow amid ongoing change." That adaptability is precisely what CultureAlly aims to instill in its clients. As the nature of work evolves—driven by technological advancements and shifting workforce expectations—the demand for effective soft skills training is likely to accelerate. CultureAlly's growth trajectory positions it as a key player in this space, and its success may encourage more investment in workplace learning across industries.
The complete 2026 ranking and editorial coverage are published in the October issue of Report on Business magazine and online.
