Employee Happiness & Productivity… We Nailed It.
The birds are chirping, it’s not raining for once, and the smell of acetone fills the air at the Roger West office in Tampa, Florida. You might be a little confused, it’s understandable. We’re getting our nails done – and it’s just one of the many things we do to make this place one of the area’s best places to work.
So… you’re probably wondering how we were able to swing this benefit of getting our nails done at the office. A huge shout out to Roger West’s fabulous Account Manager, Marisa Brasile, for leading this corporate culture initiative. She scouted a local Insta-famous mobile nail technician, Vivian (IG: @thenaildetails), to get the job done.
“Vivian not only does astounding nail art but she boosts our confidence and company morale. It was pretty easy for me to get buy-in from our employees with the goal of continuing to increase employee happiness,” says Marisa Brasile, Account Manager.
No wonder the CEO supports this initiative, he knows productivity is off the charts when his employees are feeling their best… and of course, that starts with a good mani.
“Our women are rock stars and we do our best to let them know how much they are appreciated,” says Mike Westafer, CEO and Founder of Roger West.
