As everyone is aware it has been an eventful year so far. So now more than ever, we feel it’s important to keep as much normalcy to our lives as we can, and our quarterly award where we prop up our peers is a great way to do that.
Last week we held our quarterly Walk the Talk Awards. The Walk the Talk Awards is a time when we put forward team members who demonstrate our company values.
◼ Innovation starts with reflection
◼ Embrace change as the only constant
◼ Accountability is clear and personable
◼ Work and win in teams
◼ Build our reputation through actions
◼ Understand and respect our clients
These values have been a core strength to our team, especially in these trying times.
