FFL Invests in Professional Development with Ed Lowe Foundation

Our FFL core value of Find Better Ways is carried out in many forms, one of which is supporting our team members to attend professional development opportunities. Two of our team members attended a two-day workshop at Edward Lowe Foundation in Cassopolis, MI on High-Impact HR for Small Business. Facilitators Dino Signore and Amy Cell provided stimulating concepts in an open environment which invited collaboration for individuals from three attending companies. Participants discussed their experiences and issues and shared methods which they had used to improve upon current practices.

We came away understanding that culture, the soul of your business, and structure, the bones of your business, must be in place and functioning consistently for your talent acquisition and talent retention to be successful. Great ideas and concrete practices were provided to take back and share with our respective organizations.

When outside the workshop sessions, shared meals of exemplary food and a late-evening campfire allowed us to enjoy each other’s company and continue conversations. Spacious, comfortable lodgings and extensive natural surroundings invited us to relax and unwind.  Many thanks to all the Edward Lowe staff for making our experience wonderful. We will return!
