Polydeck: Innovating Company Culture

Overview

Polydeck is a family-owned manufacturing company built on Christian values. They have been providing screening media to a global industry for over 40 years. They have achieved sustained success through continuous product innovation and an unwavering focus on serving, caring for, and working alongside their customers. They have expanded to over 380 employees worldwide while serving customers in over 40 countries.

The Problem

As a third-generation company, Polydeck had a greater need than ever to innovate their company. Their product market was now more competitive—what could they do next to differentiate themselves while continuing to honor God?

How we shaped the culture.

Prior to Ron Kuehl’s tenure at Polydeck, the company had already undergone a transformation. In fact, this company is actually the foundation of His Way At Work’s proven process!

Ron pushed the company to innovate its caring culture even further. He and Linda Coltrane manage dozens of programs that pour love into the lives of their employees and their families.

They take the time to meet with employees who are in tough positions—not to reprimand but to understand. Then, they take steps to fix their jobs, care for them in a time of crisis, or help them develop personally and professionally. The result? A culture that continues to set records for low turnover and high employee engagement.
