Thanks to Mark Harbeke of Winning Workplaces for bringing to my attention a new article in the Boston Globe that highlights what makes Winchester Hospital a top place to work. Some of the key points addressed in the article include:
- Individualized recognition
- Pride in quality service
- Frequent department huddles to communicate important information
- Quick response to employee concerns
None of what is mentioned is trend-setting, but then there are no exciting secret formulas to what works to engage and retain great workers.
It takes work and commitment and clearly Winchester Hospital has this.

Glad you liked the article, Cindy. Thanks for the shout out.
