“Over the years, NRI has stayed focused on our core values. When we first heard about WorldBlu, we felt it was an organization that could help us to continue to improve our culture and ensure that NRI would always be a place where people would be happy to come to work.” says Bruce Churchill, co-founder and CFO of NRI. “We were very excited to make the list of “Most Democratic Workplaces” with our first employee survey as it confirms our efforts to date have been effective. There is however still much to do and we look forward to working with WorldBlu and its members to become an even more democratic company.”
Here’s what I had to say about the award: “The greatest insight often comes from inside. We are learning to listen and reaping the reward.”
“People would rather work in freedom-centered rather than fear-based organizations,” comments WorldBlu Founder and CEO, Traci Fenton. “WorldBlu-certified workplaces model how freedom and democracy unleashes human potential to build high performing companies that change the world for the better.”
