This organisation is run on strong values / principles
The senior management team demonstrate their commitment to the values of the organisation by working very closely with the rest of the company, staying very approachable, and by acting as role models for more junior employees. All of the senior management joined Firstco in a comparatively junior role themselves, so they demonstrate that hard work is rewarded at Firstco. They lead by example, keeping a strong focus on high quality work that both client and Firstco staff are proud of. Because all of Firstco's employees are likely to attend meetings with the senior management team, their principles are key focus points are transmitted directly - for example, the senior management always promote health and safety concerns to be foremost in everyone's minds and the first issue to be discussed in any meeting. Mike Gray, Managing Director, takes a very hands-on interest in the actual production side of the company, chairing the monthly production meeting during which all project managers gather to discuss issues and resourcing. Furthermore, he is not above joining a project team as an engineer, and is currently acting as a lead designer on one of the larger projects, as a subordinate to one of the project managers! They have an open plan office and Mike makes himself approachable to all staff, no matter their level, and regularly attends company social events.
