What advancements has GreenStone’s human resources department made to better serve customers internally and externally?
GreenStone’s human resources philosophy is to establish a culture that supports and fosters excellent employee relations. As such, we actively seek enhancements to our programs designed to attract, develop, reward, engage and retain a highly professional, competent, and diverse workforce. Recent advancements include transitioning from a classic performance review to a dynamic continuous performance process, embracing technology and remote work capabilities for our employee population, and launching a new student loan benefit program.
What led GreenStone to be named one of 2022 Top Workplaces in the USA?
The overwhelmingly positive engagement of our employees is what led to GreenStone being named a 2022 Top Workplace. Human resources actively fosters an excellent work environment through our various programs and initiatives.
In addition to the vast programs administered by our human resources team to foster a winning culture, GreenStone has an employee engagement workgroup where employees serve a two-year term to review employee feedback and drive employee-led initiatives. Living our Core Four values of Customer First, Deliver Quality, Get Involved, and Do the Right Thing; and listening and reacting to employee feedback are some of the number one drivers of the engaged culture at GreenStone.
What do you enjoy about your role?
Rachel: I enjoy the ability to impact employee’s work experience. People spend too much time at work to not enjoy the experience. Our executive team has a very genuine desire to provide a great workplace for employee and it’s obvious by the support our HR team receives.
Kortni: I really enjoy having the opportunity to work closely with employees all over the organization and learning more about them on not only a professional level, but also a personal level. I like hearing feedback about their experience coming into GreenStone and always welcome suggestions on areas we might be able to improve!
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
Rachel: I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children, whether it’s exploring a new place or having a family game night. I also love to bake, exercise, and meet up with friends.
Kortni: I love new experiences of all kinds! My boyfriend and I like to travel often and experience new places and new adventures. I also enjoy spending time with my two fur babies, working out and going up north in the summer with family.
