INVERTED PYRAMID ®

Our success over the last sixty years stems from our Inverted Pyramid® approach, which puts our employees first so they’re better equipped to deliver Service Excellence to our clients. Instead of a “command and control” management style in which orders come down from the top, this approach helps make our employees feel valued, gives them the resources to be successful, and empowers them to execute flawlessly. It recognizes that the most important people in our business are the ones closest to our clients.
