THE TEAM
We love our team…. we love our people…and we believe our team is of immeasurable value.You see, we believe that: "you cannot give what you do not have." So, we are developing and nurturing a team of people who recognize their incredible worth and are, thereby, able to give love to others with sustainable excellence.
At the foundation of Trophy Awards is our Core Values, and we've built a team of people who align with these values. We believe that there is power in agreement - and that a team united in their values will always outperform teams operating in silos and division. We strive to understand each other for who we really are - beyond the surface of a resume - so that each person on our team can lay aside pretense and be seen and known. This is a team of brave individuals who are willing to lean into discomfort and vulnerability for the sake of a meaningful work-life that is integrated with their whole-life aspirations.
Albert Einstein said, "Once you stop learning, you start dying." We believe his quote is true. Because we love each staff member, we feel a constant responsibility to invite each staff member away from the dangerous lures of comfort and stagnation and into a relationship with learning and change. You see, we believe learning is the path to empowerment…empowerment is the path to transformation…transformation is the path to a life of abundance and meaning. As our team learns, grows, and matures, they develop the heart and skill to serve others with sincere passion and discerning insight.
We want our team to live a life full of joy, abundance, and connection. We want that for them - and we want that for you! This is a team that will work to earn your trust and empower you to transform the lives of others through expressions of love, honor, and affirmation. I'm honored to introduce them!
