Organization: ValueOptions Location: Norfolk, Virginia Title of Entry: “ValueOptions 2013 Year in Review/Progress & Promise” Category: 90. Annual Report Interior

ValueOptions is the nation’s largest independent behavioral health and wellness company whose clientele includes Fortune 500 companies, government, labor groups, and academic institutions. Their mission is to help their clients lead a healthier, fuller lives.

Like many companies, ValueOptions produces an annual report. Usually those reports include the obligatory salutations from the CEO, pictures of officers, and boring black and white facts and figures that would bore a CPA.

ValueOptions’ annual report breaks the mold. It is a creative endeavor of snappy graphics and sharp writing that is actually interesting to read even if you are not an investor or employee.
