DOING THE RIGHT THING
The latest in our series on employees who help others
Roots employees just can't seem to do enough for their communities. In the latest example, the team at the Roots store in South Keys, Ottawa is organizing a charity basketball tournament to support the Weekend to End Breast Cancer campaign.
Inspired by Paul Rogers, Manager of the Winnipeg outlet (who
organized a similar event), Susan Van Dalen, Manager of the South Keys outlet store in Ottawa, and her staff will hold a three-on-three basketball tournament early next month. As part of the event, the staff has invited other Roots stores in the Ottawa area along with other businesses in the South Keys neighbourhood to participate in the event. The tournament will also include special activities like face painting for children organized by recently promoted Assistant Manager Joey Tanga. All participants will be provided with refreshments at a BBQ held by the staff.
Besides this, the South Keys team is involved in other internal
contests and activities. Keyholder Matthiew Brazeau won a $50 Roots Gift Card when he scored the maximum points in the 'Item of the Week' contest.
Sales Associate Jonathan Gauthier achieved the highest units per transaction (UPTs) and top average sale per transaction in dollars (ASPTs) for the quarter and tied with Joey for achieving the highest number of 'Personal Sales Goals' for the past few weeks.
The team is also involved in revamping the store's motivational area with a "Beaver Log" that keeps track of the daily progress of the store's 'Goal of the Week'.
