Jeff Haney talked about it numerous times in this episode: the importance of active listening when communicating with employees. With that mindset, Jeff founded the ECM Foundation. A foundation created to promote employee togetherness while giving back to the community.
Jeff Haney joins Tim Flanagan in this episode of Winning through Culture. Jeff is president of ECM Solutions, which is one of the largest independently owned insurance agencies in the Carolinas. They have offices in Charlotte, NC and Greenville, SC with about 80 valued employees. Jeff is obviously passionate about the people he employs. Nine years ago Jeff helped found the ECM Foundation, which is a charitable organization with a committee that is made up of ECM employees. The foundation gives back to local charities and hosts fundraisers that promote employee togetherness while giving back to the community. Listen in while Jeff Haney gives us a glimpse of what he calls one magical ride.
