We are so over that model! We are seeking to humanize our clients and employees and treat people as just that, human beings that exist for more than just creating widgets We are looking to invest into those that we come in contact with in our day to day business. This plays out in a lot of ways, many of which will never be published on a web site or a Twitter post, but they happen quietly and respectfully.
I must add a disclaimer, we aren't perfect ourselves at this and we haven't even done all of these things listed here yet, but these are some of the ways in which we are/and hope to invest into our clients and staff.
- Dream Dreams and Live them out - Help our employees develop clear paths and opportunities for them to discover and pursue their personal dreams and passions.
- Be a Blessing - Seek ways to bless the lives of our employees' and clients' families.
- Invest in Families - Pay for weekend retreats for our employees and their spouses.
- Inquire - Ask people how you can pray for them. It's amazing how non-threatening it is to ask this and how willing people are to share their struggles. Most people are really grateful that someone cares enough to ask them about their lives.
- Pray for Others - Pray for our clients and employees. Each Monday morning my business partner, Phil, and I get together at 7:00 to pray for the upcoming week. We use this time to pray for our business and for those that we are going to come in contact with during the week.
- Give Back to the World - Send our employees to other parts of the world where they can give back to. We haven't quite figured this out, but we hope to provide opportunities for our employees to go and give back to places in the world that have great needs that we can help meet.
