Every month, Schwartz Insurance Group selects a peer-nominated associate to receive a Core Value Award. The winner is chosen because they "lived" one of our agency's core values - typically an event or accomplishment above and beyond the call of duty in serving our customers. For August-September, Petra Logan has "lived" our core value of "Consider it Done."
Here's her story:
Starting a new job with a significant amount of responsibility and detailed procedures can be daunting and even difficult. It could also be hard on a team that is adding a new associate, and even increase their stress level. Or it could be easy.
Schwartz was fortunate to enjoy the “easy” route with regards to a recent new hire who stepped in with little fanfare and a positive, adaptive attitude. She entered her assigned team almost seamlessly, taking less than two weeks to acclimate fully to both our software and our processes. It was a pleasant experience and a great relief to all.
Petra Logan earned a warm welcome and our thanks for being a quick study. No matter the task, with her, we can simply Consider it Done!
