On Friday, November 11, several CES Team members volunteered their time assisting WindowDressers, a Maine-based nonprofit organization that supports dozens of Community Builds across New England and brings volunteers of all economic and social situations together to improve the warmth and comfort of interior spaces, lower heating costs, and reduce carbon dioxide pollution by producing low-cost insulating window inserts that function as custom interior-mounted storm windows. The CES crew’s Community Build Day took place at Cumberland Congregational Church.



CES is committed to giving back to the community and offers team building events for employees throughout the year and provides each employee with volunteer hours that may be used to support organizations close to their

hearts in the communities in which they live and work.

CES thanks the folks at WindowDressers for a great experience – and for the work that you do that makes a positive and lasting impact throughout New England.

Start With Why

By Simon Sinek

Start with Why asks (and answers) the questions: why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over? Start with Why shows that the leaders who have had the greatest influence in the world all think, act and communicate the same way—and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.
