Ah, the power YouTube.  Thanks to Chad Hurley and Steve Chen's little billion-dollar Web innovation, I don't have to fly you out to rural Montana to show you how a successful workplace works, and how employees feel about it (in this case, 12-year-old PrintingForLess.com, founded by 2005 Winning Workplaces Best Boss Andrew Field).

I can simply show you.  Enjoy this short clip that features a number of their employees from different areas of the company talking about what drew them to Livingston, MT, to work for PFL, and what keeps them coming back with enthusiasm each day.

As you can see, their employee engagement best practices are matched to the culture that Andrew created and works hard to maintain.  These address family (an on-site daycare; dogs in the office), respect for the environment (a facility with radiant heating and unobstructed views of nearby mountain ranges), and community (partnerships with other area businesses and community development organizations).  PFL also places a strong emphasis on workplace team building, bringing workers together frequently for things like an annual chili cook-off and regular barbecues.

You can learn about another side of PFL by attending our Top Small Workplaces Conference on October 14-15, during which Andrew will offer tips and strategies on an uber-relevant topic, "Managing and Thriving in Lean Times."

Stay tuned as we bring you more videos that reveal the employee engagement activities of some of the small and midsize firms we've honored over the years for their outstanding people practices and financial performance.
