Our Management Philosophy (from: Franktuary Manager Handbook, October 2015 edition)

When a team member trusts you to lead them, you are expected to take that responsibility seriously. That’s why we make an extra effort to train you to model excellent leadership in the context of healthy relationships.

We believe that employees who are cultivated in a positive, organized, inspiring environment will bring their best selves to work and will add to the health, sustainability, and profitability of their work environment. We believe that the financial health of our business is directly correlated to the happiness of our staff.

That’s why we hire for integrity as much as for skill. Why we communicate expectations with clarity and openness for our team members and monitor their progress with feedback, evaluation, and discussion. Why we set up excellent systems and hold our teams accountable. Why we publicly appreciate one another.

Understanding how people work best is a passion of ours. We know leadership can sometimes seem overwhelming, but we believe in you. It is our pleasure to teach and guide you in managing your crew for success!
