The Zweig Letter: Part of your mission is “creating a fantastic work environment.” What types of things did you do during COVID to continue that mission? David Guetig: We are big on culture and communication. We’re known for having fun at Galloway. During COVID, we
did a nightly email to staff that consisted of fun clips and memes. I solicited information from staff about favorite COVID memes, etc. and we had a contest. Each night, my family and I would review the entries and the winner received $50. It was a fun way to stay connected. As COVID continued to carry on through the summer, we developed an active social and wellness group and started the “Gallolympics.” There were eight different events and we asked people to wear Galloway gear when they did them and to take a selfie/photo. The categories included: hiking, rafting, running, water events, biking, golf and putt-putt, walking, and field and court sports. We’d share photos and prizes and it was a great way to inspire people to get out and have fun. We couldn’t do our summer picnic, but we still managed to stay in touch. TZL: Howmuch time do you spend working “in the business” rather than “on the business?”
