Because you never know someone's struggles until you take a walk in their shoes, the staff at Central Baptist Village does just that in order to fully encompass the words I appreciate all you do. Starting the new year, we rolled out two new programs that put ourselves in others' shoes to view things from their perspective.
One community-wide program entails employees spending a day working in another department, initially starting with upper management. In January, to kick the program off we had the Human Resource Manager, Savitre, spend the day as a Housekeeper following different Housekeepers around different sections of our facility to fully experience the hard work it takes to upkeep our community and keep our residents happy. Afterwards she shared her experience and gratitude for all that the Housekeepers do by writing about her experience for all to read in the Employee Lounge. This month we are looking forward to having the Executive Director of CBV spend the day as a Culinary Aide!
Watch the blog on Friday for the second great initiative mentioned above!
