Shepell·fgi Wins Prestigious Award for Project Management
October 09, 2008
TORONTO – Shepell·fgi is pleased to announce it has been awarded the Canadian Project Excellence ("CPEX") award in Leadership Excellence. The Leadership Award recognizes outstanding leadership and sponsorship that results in improved project results and enhanced organizational productivity. Shepell·fgi’s Continuous Improvement Initiative won the award because it positively and radically changes the mind-set of all employees, from the frontline to senior leadership.
“Continuous improvement starts with employees, a simple idea or suggestion, and together we create a culture of continuous improvement - one in which quality is everyone’s job, every day in everything we do,” said Rod Phillips, President and CEO. "The project’s objectives stretch across the entire organization, recognizing the expansiveness and importance of all stakeholders."
This award strengthens Shepell·fgi’s position as a world-class leader in health and productivity solutions. “The Continuous Improvement Initiative is built on a foundation of cross-disciplinary collaboration,” said Rita Fridella Senior Vice President of Operations. “By acting in cross-disciplinary groups the organization is better able to picture how work affects the work of colleagues and the experiences of our customers and clients. Working together and sharing the expertise of people in different areas of the business leads to fresh ideas that couldn’t occur within single units.”
Eric Acker, Chief Operating Officer added, “We are pleased to be recognized by CPEX as a project visionary within the Project Management industry. Our team has worked very hard to build and implement this successful project.”
