This week, we are highlighting what makes us #ProudlyEO by featuring insights from around our business.  Starting with our Co-owner Trustees, including a perspective from Stacy and her valuable experiences. It's inspiring to hear the dedication and passion the Trustees bring to the table. “After careful consideration, I decided to put myself forward as a co-owner Trustee. I was initially concerned about living up to my predecessor’s legacy and meeting the expectations of my fellow co-owners. However, I feel extremely privileged to have been voted to represent my peers and appreciate their trust in me to act on their behalf. In each quarterly meeting, the transition from wearing my Procurement hat to my Trustee hat requires careful consideration. It's a skill that improves with time, prompting me to ask, 'Will this decision benefit our co-owners?' or 'Is this the best way forward for the business?'   We are fortunate to have a strong team of co-owner trustees supporting our business. Maria, with 18 months of experience, and Neil, who has been with us for nearly 20 years, bring a well-rounded balance to our group dynamic. Regular catchups between quarterly meetings allow us to stay connected and aligned. It's crucial to highlight that we are not hesitant to challenge the Leadership Team when necessary. The 3 external representatives serving on the Board of Trustees bring valuable expertise to our team. Their experience is a valuable resource for us, providing clarity and insight when needed. In turn, they rely on our day-to-day observations and reflections to stay informed about the business. This collaborative relationship ensures that we are well-informed and able to make informed decisions. I am looking forward to the next 2 years of my tenure as Trustee, representing co-owners and having a voice in the future of The Rooflight Co.” #EmployeeOwnership #EO #EODay #EmployeeOwned

💥 Beyond Boundaries: Why We're Not Afraid to Think Outside the Box 📦 As we gear up for another successful week, I wanted to share a recent experience that truly embodies Bargreen Ellingson's values of dedication and partnership. 💙 Picture this: a client on the brink of their grand opening week, with corporate trainers scheduled to arrive on Monday and the big launch set for Friday. The excitement was palpable, but so was the panic when they discovered they received the wrong item. 😧 Time was of the essence, and we knew we had to act swiftly. ⌛ Without hesitation, we sprang into action. Rather than leaving our client stranded, we reached out to local food service equipment suppliers in their area. Fortunately, luck was on our side, and we found exactly what they needed in stock. 🛒 Gathering all necessary details on pricing, product specifications, and location, we swiftly provided our client with the information they needed to pick up the essential item. While some companies may shy away from referring clients to competitors 🚫, we understand that our foremost priority is our client's success. 🏆 This story is just one of many instances where we've gone above and beyond to ensure our clients can open on time. Our commitment to building enduring partnerships means that we prioritize their needs above all else. We recognize that one lost order pales in comparison to the long-term trust and relationship we aim to foster. 🤝 At Bargreen Ellingson, we are more than just service providers – we are dedicated partners in our clients' success stories. Thank you to our incredible team for exemplifying our values every day, and to our clients for entrusting us with their vision. Here's to many more milestones together! 🚀 ▪ ▪ ▪ #BEnational #ServingThoseWhoServeOthers #OutsideoftheBox #ClientSuccess #Partnerships #Commitment #Teamwork #Collaboration

Didn’t someone say that a fed team is a happy team..? Today, a few of the Manchester Non-Stop gang swapped the sandwiches for a table at our local favourite, Rudy’s, blending quality time with some good old-fashioned team bonding. It’s easy to get caught up in the grind, but moments like these remind us why a great team isn’t just about collaboration—it’s about connection. And a reminder that we do actually like each other... 🤣 Taking time to share a laugh, recharge, and enjoy each other’s company isn't just fun—it keeps our creativity flowing and our working relationship open and honest. Plus, it’s a perfect opportunity to toast our recent wins and discuss the exciting projects we have in the pipeline. So here's to great food, great company, and the unbeatable Non-Stop spirit that makes our team extraordinary. Where’s your go-to for some great food? #TeamBonding #NonStopCreativity #WorkLifeBalance

Here's a straight-up truth: You are a reflection of the company you keep. Sure, money talks, but let's speak a different language for a moment. Building a powerhouse team isn't solely about dollar signs; it's about shared values, trust, and crafting an infectious culture. Remember, great teams don't just happen; they're nurtured through trust and authenticity. Don't underestimate your team for seeing through facades – authenticity always shines through. 🤝 Join me on this journey as we compose a winning culture that resonates for miles in your restaurant! #Success #TeamworkMakes #RelationshipMatters

Okay, even though no one asked for it, here's my two cents on how Chick-fil-a fumbled the freakin' bag. Ultimately I agree that they made a HUGE error in not allowing Miri to continue making content. It will not likely reflect in their bottom line at the end of the day, but it may cost them someone who is obviously a wonderful team member. I do however understand the fear brands have with UGC. If a brand agrees to a partnership with an influencer regardless of size, and there is any form of controversy with said creator, where's the first place people are going to run? There is so much additional crisis planning that companies need to have in place before implementing a UGC campaign. (Especially a company like chick-fil-a who is already intimately familiar with boycotts and protests.) But it seems that even companies like Trader Joes have fallen victim to the fear. At the end of the day, the risk is well worth the reward, and it is crazy to me that a multi-million dollar company did not come to the same conclusion.

A single follow can open doors to numerous opportunities, partnerships, and growth. By connecting, we can foster collaboration, share valuable insights, and support each other's professional journeys. Let’s build a network that inspires and drives success together. #Networking #Collaboration #ProfessionalGrowth #Opportunities #Partnerships #SupportEachOther #Inspiration #Success https://lnkd.in/e-FzQPVW

G R A T I T U D E // I rarely do this kind of post however in light of a recent terrible experience at Davids Financial Services in Nyack, New York location, I am compelled to do this one. I am hereby publicly extending my heartfelt gratitude to Matt Tobin, General Manager, of Hotel Nyack, New York, and the entire staff of this establishment for their exceptional service. During my stay in May, I was unexpectedly challenged with a ‘crisis’. During my entire stay that extended through to July, the service I received, was extraordinary. To be transparent one of my girls had a mental break in the hotel lobby the morning after our arrival on May 18th. The team's response and help were driven by heart-based intelligence, exemplifying nothing less than genuine care, kindness, and understanding. I do believe that Matt Tobin- whom I ran into one morning on an elevator ride for coffee before I headed over to the hospital - leadership, played a huge role in the way his staff members (including kitchen staff) connect with patrons. To the front desk crew Sam, Denise, and Areil Thank You for making a difference with your extraordinary hospitality. Still on a #wellnessjourney stepping in and through all fears that I face with as much confidence as I can daily. Re: Davids Financial Services - While a rep responded to my complaint about the very horrible encounter I had, given the gravity and the implications of that experience, I was not pleased with the decision that was made. - final results. There was zero provocation for the abominable behavior of the employee who interacted with me. The conduct of Davids Financial in contrast was startling, distressing, and bizarre, especially considering the broader societal context of race and ethnicity. We are acutely aware of the potential consequences of a simple situation devolving into a far more horrific experience. Marked by aggression and subjection to biases/potential racial profiling, this incident required immediate awareness. Such conduct reflects poorly on the reputation of this establishment. #gratitude #hotelnyack #leadership
