NEW YORK, N.Y. (June 2, 2011) – CJP Communications (CJP), a full-service public relations and financial communications consultancy, has been named one of the 10 Great Entrepreneurial Places to Work in the New York tri-state area. The designation was awarded by the New York Enterprise Report, a leading magazine for small and mid-sized business owners in the New York metro area.

The Report highlighted CJP’s innovative “Army of Entrepreneurs™” business model, which was the subject of a 2011 book of the same name by Jennifer Prosek, the firm’s founder and CEO. CJP’s flat management structure and focus on developing an “owner’s mindset” for all employees were also cited as reasons for the firm’s inclusion in the list.

Further showcased by the Report was CJP’s “Commission for Life™” program. This initiative encourages new business development by providing financial rewards to employees at all levels who contribute to the growth of the firm.

“The impact of CJP’s ‘Army of Entrepreneurs’ model on the success of our business cannot be overstated. Our employees – from senior management to junior staffers – are actively involved in our new business leads, recruiting efforts and company decisions,” said Prosek. “We’re delighted to be recognized by the Report and the business community of New York for the entrepreneurial culture we’ve worked so hard to create.”

In early 2011, Prosek published Army of Entrepreneurs: A Breakthrough Strategy to Grow Your Business (AMACOM, 2011), a book on the firm’s unique business model to share insights and learnings with other business owners. Entrepreneurs interested in deploying their own army can keep up with news, tips and speaking engagements by visiting www.armyofentrepreneurs.com or following updates on Twitter @EmployeeArmy.
