Companies are communities. There's a spirit of working together. Communities are not a place where a few people allow themselves to be singled out as solely responsible for success.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you work for and eventually lead a company, understand that companies have multiple stakeholders including employees, customers, business partners and the communities within which they operate.
If it's one thing we do really well as a company, it's that we take big change slowly and deliberately and bring the community along with us.
The companies that make meaningful contributions while also listening to the voices of others are the ones that will genuinely engage their community, who will then go to work for them.
Companies and leaders are role models - not just with the business community - but in the broader world.
You know, as most entrepreneurs do, that a company is only as good as its people. The hard part is actually building the team that will embody your company's culture and propel you forward.
We're very much in the people business in that there are two important groups you have to work with: customers and employees.
I suspect that many corporations have begun to understand that they have an important role to play in the lives of their communities, and that allocating funds to support local groups helps them discharge that function and also burnish their image.
Our company is built on people - those who work for us, and those we do business with.
If people support independently owned small businesses in their community, they can make a difference.
I think good companies can navigate being public and doing the right things for their customers.
