Trust and Respect: pillars of any successful relationship and, quite fittingly, two components that represent one of Lewis’s six core values.

As daunting as it may seem to earn and maintain trust and respect, it’s a concept that’s perhaps easier to navigate than expected.

“It turns out that trust is in fact earned in the smallest of moments. It is earned not through heroic deeds, or even highly visible actions, but through paying attention, listening, and gestures of genuine care and connection.” — Brene Brown

Authentically and consistently modeling these behaviors with your clients and colleagues inevitably leads to more candid rapport, stronger connections and, with any luck, lasting working relationships that are beyond financially profitable—they’re actually meaningful. 

They say it’s the little things that matter. In my opinion, that couldn’t be more true. 

Trust me.

Summer Picnic at Remlinger Farm

Last weekend, the Washington operation hosted the annual summer picnic for employees and their families. The picnic was held at Remlinger farms and included a food drive, fun craft projects and plenty of refreshments for all. A special thank you to Marya Granger and her team for planning and executing such a great event!
