For me as a team leader, success is when my team members are succeeding.

Let's give a round of applause to this month's Shield Spotlight recipient, Carly Tessmann! 🎉👏 Carly has been making a huge impact at EcoShield with her dedication and hard work. Want to know more about Carly and her incredible contributions? Keep reading below! 👇 🔹 When did you join EcoShield & what’s your position/role? I joined our “OG” Chicago branch in 2017 when I was just a little 21-year-old baby looking for a place to settle! I started out as a Start Tech and worked my way up to a Reg Tech, Field Manager, Service Manager, Operations Manager, and now a General Manager of the Chicago North Branch! 🎉 🔹 What is your favorite part of your job? Everyone thinks it’s cheesy when managers or employers say this, but it truly is the people I work for. 🛡️💙 I love coming in each day with the goal to genuinely help my employees. I pride myself on creating as diverse and inclusive atmosphere as possible at my branch and our employees truly feel it! 🔹 What's one thing you would tell someone who was thinking about working at EcoShield? Do it. Even if you have some doubts, push those away and just do it. 💪 🔹 If you could pick just one, what would your "spirit bug" be? Hmmm. I would have to choose a honey bee! 🐝 I am super docile and just want to do my job all day every day! I won’t sting, as long as you don’t come after me or my people. 😜 🔹 Who would win in a fight: you or a Tarantula Hawk Spider Wasp? Pshhh it only sounds scary. Just give me a 25-foot pole and I’ll knock their nest right down no sweat. 😅 Maybe give me a bee suit first... or at least a can of wasp freeze. 😂 🔹 What's your secret talent/a fun fact about you? I have an identical twin sister! We are both managers in pest control. 🐜🚫 Not only is it rare to have women in pest control, but two identical twins is crazy! To be a fly one the wall at our family gatherings... it’s quite entertaining so I’ve been told. I guess it runs in the family! 👯 🔹 What is one word you would use to describe EcoShield? Life-Changing. 🙌

So this company has me blocked from making comments! 1099 companies are terrible for healthcare! They do not offer their independent contractors the benefits they deserve. They deliberately misclassify these people as contractors instead of workers, just to avoid paying payroll taxes and the costs of benefits. The Labor Dept is cracking down on these companies and many facilities are being sued and viewed to be the real employer, thus requiring them to pay the back payroll taxes and benefits for these workers. In addition, if there are problems with employee performance, there is not much of an office staff to address those issues. Their credentialling processes are poor because they are not healthcare professionals who really care. When these workers have pay issues, they go through so much stress to get paid what they are due. There are SO many reasons to avoid hiring 1099 agencies! Google this matter and read the facts!

🎉 Shoutout to my amazing team at More Than Freights! 🎉 Just wanted to take a moment today to brag a little about the fantastic people I work with. Every day, these folks amaze me with their knack for hitting those high-quality marks we’re all chasing. But you know what really makes my heart swell with pride? It's not just the top-notch work they do; it's how they do it. We’re talking open, honest chats with our clients, keeping everyone in the loop, and really, just making sure every tiny detail gets the attention it deserves. It’s like watching a well-oiled machine – if that machine was also your group of super talented friends. And let’s be real, it’s the behind-the-scenes – the laughs in the warehouse, the coffee runs, the brainstorming sessions – that makes all the difference. This team doesn’t just work hard; they care hard. And that’s what sets us apart. So, here's to my team – for being absolute rockstars and making every project a bit more special. Couldn't do it without you guys. Here’s to all the projects we’ve aced and all the ones still to come. 🚚💪 Feeling grateful and pumped for the future! #TeamLove #MoreThanFreights #BehindTheScenes #QualityMatters #ClientLove

Working with your partner in life and business is not always easy. But capitalizing on each other's strengths, supporting one another through mistakes, and being open-minded to the other's ideas has been a game-changer for our business. Thanks for the acknowledgement, Joe Lubong! ❤️ #SPHstudio #husbandandwifeteam #businesspartners #seattlepremiumheadshots

Small step at a time...

Triad's nationwide sales team united in St. Louis for three days of learning, laughter, and team bonding. We reflected on incredible achievements in 2023 and planned for 2024, all while having a whole lot of fun! We started off with a delicious dinner at Edera, where the dinner table turned into a comedy club - fostering an atmosphere of camaraderie and shared joy. The next day we gained insights from thought-provoking presentations by department heads across design, customer service, engineering, finance, marketing, and installation. Engaging with experts from different departments provided us with a multitude of invaluable insights, enhancing our collective knowledge. Amen (our GM of facilities and production) guided us through the factory, showcasing our ongoing projects, machines, and investments. A significant investment for us was the construction of our new storage building. Wrapping up the experience, we had a blast at Top Golf, connecting with more members of our fantastic team and revealing some impressive skills among our team members. Triad is more than a team; it's a big, supportive family. We consistently have an incredible time whenever we come together, and we hope you have the opportunity to experience working with the Triad family. Working with us means not only getting industry experts but also a team that knows how to have a good time! #WeAreTriad #ContinuousLearning #TeamExpertise #TeamEnrichment #TeamLearning #TeamSpirit #TeamCollaboration #RetailExperience #RetailFixtures #TeamBonding #Collaboration #TeamCelebration #TeamUnity #WorkCulture #WorkEnvironment #EmployeeMorale #TeamAppreciation #EmployeeOwned #WorkExperience

Great example of how a team works as a single unit over a fairly long time frame. while they're celebrating 3rd anniversary in a new avatar, I have seen them working together as far as my memory serves - more than 10 years for sure. So, what's the mantra to stick together as a team for over a decade 1. Complete autonomy and sense of ownership. Decision making including very strategic ones such as partner selection is done with everyone agreeing to the same. 2. Total transparency - everyone knows everything about the company including access to the CEO's email ( not advocating this as a best practice though 🤣), but nothing can be a greater example of transparency 3. Direct and no nonsense communication style including arguments 4. Complete flexibility in working hours. Family priorities come first for everyone and other team members support the person who needs time away automatically. These are few of my impressions as an outside observer who has seen this team through ups and downs.
