Another important tenet of the company\u2019s culture is mutual trust. Employees are encouraged to make their own decisions, with Emerson Group\u2019s core values in mind. This philosophy has paid off, as the company\u2019s current team of 13 employees has a combined tenure of 103 years. Vacation time at Emerson Group increases over an employee\u2019s time with the company, and sick and personal days are unlimited and not tracked. \u201cWe are very family-oriented and flexible with staff members who need to work around their personal schedules, run out to attend a school play, child\u2019s doctor\u2019s visit, or anything else they feel is important,\u201d says Emerson.<br \/>\n<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-2935 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bill-emersonls-quote-corporate-culture-awards-2016.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bill-emersonls-quote-corporate-culture-awards-2016.jpg 500w, https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bill-emersonls-quote-corporate-culture-awards-2016-300x165.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><br \/>\n\u201cThe 2016 Corporate Culture Award winners have realized that running a company is more than head count and the bottom line. It\u2019s about creating a place where creativity, energy and ideas are\u00a0cultivated. Through this they are able to not only enhance performance and sustain their companies\u2019 competitive advantages but also enrich the lives of those they employ and inspire\u00a0them to make a greater impact on the world,\u201d says Jaime Nespor-Zawmon, President of SmartCEO. \u201cWe\u2019re honored to celebrate with the leaders of Philadelphia\u2019s top company cultures\u00a0and recognize them for building true performance-driven cultures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The evening kicked off with a high-energy networking reception, complete with fun activities including pool, ping-pong, cornhole and foosball. The video-packed awards presentation celebrated Philadelphia\u2019s top company cultures for fostering a creative, collaborative workplace that has helped them enhance employee performance and sustain a competitive advantage in the market.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>About the Corporate Culture Awards<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Corporate Culture Awards program honors companies that foster a creative, collaborative workplace culture to enhance performance and sustain a competitive advantage. Smart leaders understand that culture is a company\u2019s greatest asset, driving performance and growth. What\u2019s more, a successful culture is actively and intentionally cultivated and developed. Corporate Culture Awards winners will have championed for a positive, productive culture in their organization, and will have worked with employees to develop successful cultural practices. The final roster of winners will be chosen by an independent committee of local business leaders, profiled in\u00a0<em>SmartCEO\u00a0<\/em>magazine, and celebrated at a high-energy awards event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emerson Group is One of SmartCEO\u2019s Top Company Culture Award Recipient, Philadelphia\u00a0 Emerson Group was a recipient at\u00a0SmartCEO\u2019s\u00a0\u00a02016 Company Culture Awards\u00a0on December 13, 2016.\u00a0 More than 300 CEOs and decision-makers joined SmartCEO in honoring the 2016 Corporate Culture Award Winners at a fun-filled celebration.\u00a0\u00a0 Winners were profiled in the November\/December issue of\u00a0SmartCEO\u00a0magazine and celebrated\u00a0at the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[11,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2932","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events","category-featured"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2932","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2932"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2932\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2932"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2932"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/emersongroupinc.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2932"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
