The Crest Industries Culture Corps is a group of team members nominated and recognized by their peers as examples of our Values in action. Each month, one member of the Culture Corps is recognized as a Culture Champion for their outstanding efforts of living our Values and helping our teams, customers and communities grow beyond what we believe is possible. These Culture Champions receive the “Walkie-Talkie Award” for their commitment to walking the talk and living our our Values every day.
We extend trust, build confidence, and hold each other accountable.
We win when we all win together. We create mutual success and build trusting, lasting relationships.
We are never content with "that's how it's always been done." We question to understand, learn, continuously improve, and innovate.
We ambitiously turn challenges into successes through perseverance, resilience, and a will to win.
Tim was nominated for showing what it means to win together. One of his nominators, Kyle Arnold says, “aside from his exceptional technical expertise, and uncanny ability to think outside of the box, Tim understands the importance of “being an attentive ear” for his teammates and how deeply he cares about the morale and well-being of his coworkers.” He brings new ideas to the table and is a champion for his team members at beta and throughout the crest family.
Brian joined our team as a Civil Engineer in 2014. His supervisor, Travis Larrabee, shared how Brian is dependable and has a talent for thinking outside the box to turn challenges into success. Brian’s nominator, Chris Willcutt, says, “Brian is always someone you can count on to get the job done. He meets challenges head-on and independently researches solutions to bring to the table. He is a great asset to the team that helps us win together!”
Lisa's nominator says that “beyond being a dedicated and passionate member of the Crest team, Lisa is extremely personable and kind to those around her. She is incredibly knowledgeable and eager to lend a helping hand wherever she's needed.” Her supervisor, Paul Bordelon, shares that Lisa’s role is unique and vital for the Robison Family and for Crest. The blend of working with the family and corporate side of the business takes someone with the highest level of ethics, professionalism, and an eye for continuous improvement, and “we couldn’t have a better person in the role.”
Levi has been part of the Crest Family for 8 years, and his leadership and dedication to living our values have been a key part of the growth of his team members. His nominator, Andrew Crawford, says, “Levi is continually going above and beyond with his leadership and guidance. He's constantly checking in to make sure his team is on track and in a good place within the business, and he [supports us] in many areas outside of just the day-to-day grind.”
Crest is pleased to announce we have TWO Culture Champions for the month of March, Keith Henry and David Harrington from the Proposal Team at DIS-TRAN Packaged Substations. These two created a brand-new procedure within the proposal development process and its impact is ringing loud and clear. Congratulations to Keith and David!
Robert is a great example of our values in action! As St. Jude’s Heroes, he and his son Landon raise funds for the children’s cancer research center and the families receiving treatment there in honor of his late wife, Monica, who passed away from cancer. Robert champions the phrase “rise to the challenge,” and he focuses on building lasting relationships and supporting his team to make sure we can all win together both in the community and across the Crest Family.
Congratulations to Nick Thomas, Factory-Built Substation (FBS) Technician at DIS-TRAN Packaged Substations. Nick started at our Product Support Services (PSS) facility at the Alexandria Regional Port almost two years ago, and his teammates have noticed how he shows up and gives it his all every day. Nick’s nominator, Cedrick Wilson from DIS-TRAN Packaged Substations (DTPS), says that Nick “really gives 100% daily and is always willing to learn, accept responsibility, and grow. He values the ideals, goals, and standards of the company,” and we are lucky to have him on our team.
Congratulations to Sean Jones. Sean is the Training Supervisor at DIS-TRAN Steel, and he’s been an integral part of the team for over 20 years. Sean has left an impact on our teams and communities in central Louisiana and across the country. His nominator, Dylan Huffman, Quality Assurance Inspector from Steel’s remote team, shared how Sean was incredibly helpful and intentional during his training in Louisiana – not only for safety and procedural training but also as a representative of the culture and values of our team. Sean is one-of-a-kind - a man of true loyalty and integrity, and we are incredibly lucky to have him on our team.
Congratulations to Esther Long, Courier at Crest Operations. Esther is a fantastic team member and part of our Crest Community. She interacts with all our teams in Cenla and is always there with a smile, a cheerful hello, and a helping hand. Her nominator shared that Esther “is never afraid to question the status quo and look for ways to make herself, Crest Properties, and our company better. Her dedication to continuous improvement has helped to modernize processes and policies at Properties and made them more accessible and easier to understand for all our team members.” We are so glad to have her as part of our team.
