A Heartfelt Approach to Leadership

As the CEO of a women-owned, family-owned business, I’ve always believed that our company’s greatest asset is our people. That’s why we’ve built a culture that goes beyond the traditional 9-to-5.

We understand that our employees are more than just coworkers. They’re family members, friends, and individuals with lives outside of the office. And when they’re happy and fulfilled, it shows in their work.

Here are a few ways we’ve fostered a family-first culture:

• Flexible Work Arrangements: We offer flexible work options, including remote work and flexible hours, to accommodate our employees’ personal and family commitments.
• Wellness Programs: We encourage our employees’ physical and mental health with access to wellness programs, such as fitness classes, meditation sessions, and mental health resources.
• Employee Assistance Programs: We provide employee assistance programs to support employees in need, offering confidential counseling and resources for various personal challenges.
• Work-Life Balance Initiatives: We encourage our employees to take time off and disconnect from work, understanding that a healthy work-life balance is essential for overall well-being. Shortened Friday’s through the summer is one example of this, allowing employees to start their weekend a bit earlier whether they have kids home from school or not. 
• Community Involvement: We foster a sense of community by encouraging our employees to participate in volunteer activities and charitable initiatives.

By investing in our employees’ well-being and creating a supportive environment, we’ve not only improved employee satisfaction but also seen a positive impact on our business. Our employees feel valued, motivated, and committed to our company’s success.
