"FSO is driven by passionate people and the value they create. They are passionate about their work. Their passion and enthusiasm are the fuel that ignites our success."
Good Morning Folks,
FSO is growing at an extremely fast pace. Outsiders want to know the keys to that success -- the driving force behind the ambition. We know it's our people that make the difference.
Our rapid growth has helped created 2000 new jobs including 240 promotions from within for folks, many of whom were stuck in dead-end jobs and restricted by glass ceilings with their former employers.
FSO is driven by passionate people and the value they create. They are passionate about their work. Their passion and enthusiasm are the fuel that ignites our success. I often refer to the wonderful motivational messages that are being communicated throughout the week internally at FSO by folks from all walks of the company.
The best way to get to know the size, scope and spirit of FSO is to hear what our employees have to say, from these my favorite of the employee motivational messages to date. For your convenience, in case you missed any or want a reference page to refer back to whenever you need a healthy dose of motivation I present….
What else did I takeaway from our employee communications ?
==> Shawn Curwen: Be A Little Better Today At Something Than You Were Yesterday.
==> Experience Manager Ruan: Pursing Happiness.
"We live in a society, a weird one actually. We have been accustomed to thinking that we have to get something, something like money, high valued goods, an extravagant lifestyle and a prefect partner in order to be happy. In other words, we have been in such an environment which forces us to think that only a complain free life and life with no problems can make us happy. Not a single person existed or exists or will ever exist without having hurdles, or any personal pains.
Mitch Weiner, Jim Caton, Denise Ngeow, Mike Reitano, Steve Jobs, Helen Keller, Oprah Winfrey, you and I.......all of us have had our own challenges. What if: Steve Jobs worked as if he needed only money? What if: Helen Keller sat down doing nothing considering herself handicapped?
These people, instead of complaining, worked harder and smarter. They focused on their blessings, their ability to grow higher and at the same time contribute to others. They did not let hard times deter their dreams, instead learned from them and kept moving ahead. A happy or successful person is not someone who is living in a certain set of circumstances, but rather someone who is living with a certain set of attitudes.
Happiness doesn't depend on getting rid of all conflicts and problems in life....rather, it depends on learning how to deal with those problems and conflicts and knowing how to rise above them to enjoy the good things."
==> Region Director Larry Wallace: It's All About Strategy.
"FSO’s strategy is to provide the best hospitality to all our clients with white glove service and more importantly give each and everyone us the opportunity to achieve our dreams of success. A strategy could be presenting to your client how we plan to save them costs, provide new services or get them to be the best reference ever."
==> Joseph W. Yap: Every Day Presents A New Opportunity To Be Great Do Something Great For Others.
"How lucky are we to be able be given new chances to improve ourselves, improve the way we serve our clients, improve the way we work with our staff, as well as to improve the way these opportunities are spread among all levels of employment at FSO. This is important. Because great companies make sure that opportunities are available to all levels and not only to a select few. No other outsourcing company does this to their staff and I am a living proof, because I’ve been in the business since the dinosaurs roamed."
==> Northeast Regional Director, Christine Rainey: The Difference Between Quitters And Climbers.
"A Quitter simply gives up on the climb up the mountain or challenge. Quitters often blame others, become overwhelmed, and allow adversity to stay a lot longer than necessary.
"Campers generally work hard, apply themselves and pay their dues in life to get to the next level. Then they plateau by planting their stakes in the ground, pitch their tent and camp out there for a while. "
"Climbers are a rare breed. They continue to learn, grow, strive and improve until they grow so far they look back and say “I gave it my all”.
It is truly humbling to reflect on so many fantastic contributors, and every department should be proud to have their hand in our success.
As you can tell, we are in pursuit of being the best company we can be and loving our staff and our clients. We enjoy what we do, believe in what we do, and deliver to you a passion that just cannot be duplicated by others in our industry.
Forbes wrote… "For any investor assessing innovation, creative destruction and disruptive technologies it’s a must to find the outliers. The standouts are not the technologies themselves but the zealous missionary people who conjure up the big new ideas and champion them to everyone else."
At FSO, our ability to (re)IMAGINE a future very different than exists today and surround ourselves with passionate, open minded people who always have our client's future success at heart, make FSO the Apple of its industry. The disruptor. The innovator. The better alternative.
Less than 48 months ago, hundreds of FSO clients ALL relied on someone else who let them down. Now they have made the switch to us
Thanks to our employees for all you do for us, and to our clients for awarding us the privilege of serving you.
