1. Building a Foundation of Trust: Every year we take advantage of our retreat to discuss our Mission, Vision and Values as an organization, and how they can best be reflected in the work we do every day. As part of this we discuss the importance of trust; trust within our team, trust between our team and our clients, and trust between our team and our tradespeople. Trust isn’t just a word at TRS Build; it’s something we strive for in every interaction, from the office to the construction site. We are very proud of our team, that we can trust each person to bring their best every day, and to deliver that in turn to our clients. 
2. Fostering Communication: Effective communication is a topic that cannot be, well, over communicated! We discussed the importance of communication in building on our first topic - trust. From communicating options during the design process to communicating progress during construction and collecting client feedback all along the way. Over the years we have continually refined on (and added to) our communication channels and processes to do our best to ensure we are both communicating proactively and asking for feedback at critical times during the project. 
3. Embracing Diversity and Innovation: During our retreat, we celebrated the diversity within our team, our contractor base, and our clients. We are so grateful to get to work with (and learn together with) so many different people and perspectives! Seeking out and embracing different perspectives has been essential for our growth and development as a company, enriching our solutions and internal culture by listening to the perspectives of others and seeing how we can leverage these ideas to create value for our team and clients. and ensure that every client receives a tailored approach that meets their unique needs. 
4. Continuous Learning and Development: Learning is a lifelong journey and being in the custom home building and remodeling business provides ample opportunities for learning on a daily basis! Whether it be new tools, technologies, expertise in design and construction, industry and market trends, and best practices for customer service and contractor relations, there really is something new to learn every day. Not many of our clients get to see how passionate our team is about learning and improving, sharing what they have learned with the rest of the team, and engaging discussion on how we can use our knowledge to improve product and service delivery.
5. Embracing Each Individual: A great team is made up of individuals and we couldn’t be more proud of our team and trades. This year we celebrated each individual on our team by sharing our Enneagram results focusing on the strengths each person brings. We also were excited to provide a barbecue for our core team to have social time with the tradespeople who work so hard to deliver on our commitment to create the beauty and functionality our clients seek for their homes and businesses.
