SHOUTING OUT THE GREAT WORK WE DO
SEND THOSE HIGH FIVES! to our collective journey toward this vision. As you are working, note opportunities to give a High Five to your fellow employee-owners. Here are the guidelines for each category: Safe — An employee steps up to make a situation or task safer in a notable way. Guide — A teammate goes the extra mile to teach, improve a process, make a handoff go smoothly, problem-solve, collaborate, equip others, or share a good idea between locations. Wow — Catch a colleague going above and beyond to create that wow experience we all want as consumers. When a customer gives feedback about exceptional service, use this category to praise your team so we can all benefit.
If you’ve been with Franklin for any period of time, you’ve undoubtedly heard of our company’s High Five program. Every month, a member of the EO Guide team selects a few of these and showcases them in this newsletter. Supervisors may even share these during their huddles. Some of our roles can feel more thankless than others, and we should always celebrate excellence. A little affirmation never hurt anyone! In 2022, Levi Smith (CEO) rolled out what we know as our 2026 Vision, a road map for Franklin to become a world-class organization by our 50th anniversary. The High Five process is not just a recognition tool but a crucial part of our strategic alignment with the five tenants of this road map: Safe, Guide, Wow, Strive, and the overall goal to Make Building Easy for our customers. Your participation in the High Five program is not just about recognition; it’s about contributing
to stretch our financial performance! This category could include praise for LEAN projects or any time you see a colleague truly embodying employee ownership to improve company profit. Easy — Our overarching goal at Franklin is to make building easy for the customer, and this category is great for a High-Five when you notice several of the above coming into play all at once in a customer-focused way. If you see an opportunity to shout out one of your fellow owners using one of these five lenses, submit your High Five to HighFive@franklinbuildingsupply.com. Put the 2026 Vision keyword in the subject line and tell us a story! We all have jobs to provide for ourselves and the people we care about, but as owners, we also work for the pride of what we are doing and the company we are continuing to build. We know great work is happening, so let’s flood that email with HIGH FIVES!
Strive — Consider how all activities affect our financial performance, make intelligent decisions, and look for opportunities
