THE CLIMATE OF YOUR SECURITY ORGANIZATION
More and more companies recognize that the "emotional well being" of their business can affect overall performance. When it comes to maintaining a positive work environment, flexibility is the key ingredient.
There's a special feeling, an invigorating climate in the flexible security system organization. When you walk in the door, you can sense an openness to new ideas. There is a comfort of structure, a sense of purpose, and a system for getting things done. Yet there are lots of options, and people take the time to really listen. There is a feeling of mutual respect and a can-do attitude. Each person truly wants sales and service to be of the highest quality. Most of all, this flexible organization welcomes change, not change-for-changes-sake but productive change.
