“ When it comes to caring, our leadership team believes in Christian principles and faith. You don’ t have to be Christian to work at Eastern, but we advocate for those beliefs. We focus on one of our fundamentals every week and it’ s been the best change management strategy we’ ve ever implemented for our culture. Culture is used a lot in business now. It’ s really how our people interact with each other and do things. We have confidential chaplains that go into our locations and help build relationships – they’ ve even married some of our people. We also have an emergency fund that’ s fully subsidized by our associates, along with our community program called Eastern Cares. We give every team member days off every year that Eastern pays them to volunteer in the community, and lastly, we created our Tanzania fund, where we were able to build two orphanages and a secondary school in Iringa, Tanzania.” manufacturing-today. com 93
