Etc etc

It would be an understatement to say I was incredibility excited when I found out i would attend my vocational day with Kirsten who is the Vice President of HR at Aerostructures, a subsidiary company of Therma who fabricate Alternative Mission Equipment for defence and commercial aircraft. And the day did not disappoint!

After passing through three security points, the first thing that struck me was how visible the organisational values are! On the front counter as i walked in was a little pocket brochure that outlined the values of the company! Cue my internal 'ekk'. Then i looked up...there were posters on the walls...THEN i kid you not...the first employee I met was a holding a "show passion" mug (which is one of the values)... after i had to contain my nerdy excitement I had a little chuckle to myself because I felt like I was watching one of those sitcoms where they have product placements in every shot... It was everywhere i looked...and as you can imagine...I was in awe! In awe of the way they made the intangible tangible...because as we know (hey doug :p) is difficult to understand and explain the warm and fuzzy stuff that invisibility motivates employees behaviour etc...
