The Austin American-Statesman Names Watkins Insurance Group a 2018 Top Workplace
Austin, TX, November 07, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Watkins Insurance Group has been awarded a 2018 Top Workplace honor by The Austin American-Statesman. The list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by research partner Energage, LLC (formerly WorkplaceDynamics), a leading provider of technology-based employee engagement tools. The anonymous survey measures several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution, and connection, just to name a few.
“Top Workplaces is more than just recognition,” said Doug Claffey, CEO of Energage. “Our research shows organizations that earn the award attract better talent, experience lower turnover, and are better equipped to deliver bottom-line results. Their leaders prioritize and carefully craft a healthy workplace culture that supports employee engagement.”
“We are so proud to be recognized as one of the Top Workplaces in Austin for eight consecutive years. This ranking means so much to us because it reaffirms that we’re fostering an atmosphere where our employees know that they are valued,” said Patrick Watkins, President, Watkins Insurance Group. “As Watkins Insurance Group approaches our 70th anniversary, we’ve seen first-hand that success in business depends on providing the very best in client care. To provide that level of care, each employee must strive in their individual efforts to meet that group goal. Simply put, I believe that an organization that provides the best for its team will have a team that provides the best for its customers.”
Watkins Human Resources Manager, Kimberly Vasquez, adds: “We value relationships, so creating a work environment which promotes collaboration and teamwork comes naturally to everyone who works at Watkins. The culture at Watkins Insurance Group is about building relationships with each other, our clients, and our community. Our core values drive our daily operations and help us sustain a culture built on service.”
“Becoming a Top Workplace isn’t something organizations can buy,” Claffey said. “It’s an achievement organizations have worked for and a distinction that gives them a competitive advantage. It’s a big deal.”
