Garland is proud to be recognized among its peers for one of the company’s greatest priorities and most valuable assets\u2014its people.<\/p>\n \u201cEven as we have grown over the past 120 years, we have been able to maintain\u2014and even improve\u2014our culture of a hardworking family. I think a large part of that is our employee-ownership program, which makes each and every one of our employees an invested stakeholder in our success,\u201d says Scott Craft, Garland\u2019s vice president and general manager.<\/p>\n The Top Workplace list is based solely on the results of an employee feedback survey administered by WorkplaceDynamics LLC, a research firm that specializes in organizational health and workplace improvement. Several aspects of workplace culture were measured, including alignment, execution, and connection, just to name a few.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Top Workplaces award is not a popularity contest. And oftentimes, people assume it\u2019s all about fancy perks and benefits.\u201d says Doug Claffey, CEO of WorkplaceDynamics. \u201cBut to be a Top Workplace, organizations must meet our strict standards for organizational health. And who better to ask about work life than the people who live the culture every day\u2014the employees.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For the fifth consecutive year, the Garland Co. has been awarded the 2016 Top Workplace honor by The Plain Dealer.
