our PEOPLE are our QUALITY 2015 annual report Love • Hope • Grow www.spininc.org SPIN Annual Report Vol. 27 Our PEOPLE are Our QUALITY CEO’s Message: Our People are our Quality SPIN Corporate Board: Oversees our Quality Trustees Message from the President & CEO Our People are our Quality Kathleen Brown McHale PIN’s founders knew that nothing is more essential to the quality of S services than the quality of the people who provide those services. That reality is even more powerfully relevant today. People with the right heart, intentions, skills and training, working together within a culture that is uniquely hopeful, caring and determined, has created and sustained an organization where for over 45 years people have chosen to come so they can thrive. Phyllis Barbera Joanne Leonard Joseph T. Murphy Jr., Esq. Corporate Board I t takes many hearts, hands and minds to support 3,200 people to have a life of possibilities. Last year 1,100 employees pursued and fulfilled that vision. I am so proud of and thankful for the people who comprise SPIN’s workforce. It is a diverse, dedicated, talented team, connected to SPIN’s Pillars of People First, Professionalism, Performance Excellence and Productivity. SPIN employees are “all in” and know how to put others first. SPIN’s culture creates an environment of positivity, respect and achievement where professionals grow, develop, give and know they are a part of something meaningful. People who come to SPIN for services flourish, because of this engaging, highly expective environment. On March 22, 2015, philly.com and The Philadelphia Inquirer named SPIN among the region’s Top Workplaces for the sixth consecutive year. Achieving the rank of 8th in the large company category and top honors in Training demonstrates our investment in and belief in our workforce. Being a Top Workplace means we are able to recruit and retain the best people for every job in our organization. Through the pages of this Annual Report, you will meet just a few of SPIN’s incredible employees and hear from families and other partners about how they create the magic of a life of possibilities for others each day.
