Top Work Place Awarded for Years in a row! - Townsend Leather

We talk often in small groups at Townsend Leather about, ‘what will success look like?‘.  We strive to put mental imagery and careful words to define our goals – knowing that this definition, the very act of attempting to answer that question, immeasurably increases our chances of meeting that success.

What is interesting is – a success, as defined by Townsend Leather Partners, almost always looks like meeting some measure of a mile-post with the knowledge that we put our everything into it and did so with integrity to our values.

We’ve thought about ‘what does success look like’ for every day at Townsend Leather, and we answered it with – living and loving our values, doing what we do best, and doing it together.  

 

“We are honored to be recognized by our team and the Times Union for another year in a row as a Top Workplace!

What’s even cooler this year is the additional recognition for our Values-based culture.  Our values truly are our guiding force and aspirational to us in good times and tough times.  We have learned over the years our Values have helped strengthen and improve the company’s longevity, resilience, and fortitude!   We celebrate this honor in spirit and from afar, looking forward to the time we can celebrate together as a team!”

Townsend Leather President

 

We do not set out with a Win as the definition of our success, we set out to live our values and live them well enough that others notice it.  And that is what is so honoring about the 9 years of awards.
