"What I like most about my job is going above and beyond for
each and every client that I interact with each day. When I engage
clients, I feel capable of answering the majority of their questions
because of Davey's extensive training. This gives clients added
confidence in the Davey brand.
I feel the smallest details and striving for perfection is what
retains a client, and I enjoy contributing to Davey's exceptional
reputation. Davey gives me this freedom and trust to be a part
of the 'Davey Difference.' I am proud to be a part of the team."

I have heard the comparison made between Davey and a
big ship. Naturally, as a fan of Great Lakes freighters, I imagine
a behemoth iron ore carrier. Its shiny red and black hull cuts
a smooth wake across a sparkling-blue Lake Michigan.
I like this comparison, because it makes me think about
how the MyDavey Bulletin is the ship's radio.
The radio of course can communicate internally, to the
ship's crew, and externally to other ships and to shore.
Through its speakers, a ship's crew hears the voice of
each other and the ship's officers, its leaders.
What makes the Bulletin great is the fact its airwaves are
already full of great stories from all of you. Like that freighter's
radio, the MyDavey Bulletin relies on your reports.
With this third issue for 2016 of the MyDavey Bulletin
you've undoubtedly noticed how much its redesigned layout
relies on high-quality photographs. With your submissions,
we also look forward to seeing your photographs. Here are
some tips for taking great photos to go with your
exceptional stories.
• Make sure all employees pictured are working
safely and using appropriate PPE
• Clean the lens, whether on a camera or cell
phone camera
• Get close to your subject, and try interesting angles
• Hold your camera steady
• Don't zoom in with a smartphone; get closer instead
Keep sending us submissions to Davey Families, whether
you're a proud parent or grandparent, Davey Around the
World, when you take that great vacation, In the Spotlight,
for when you or a coworker earns special recognition, and
our other regular features.
The picture is yours to paint. Let's all work together to
make it a good one.
