Namely, the division of roles and labor has been comfortably established among the company’s workers as an area of their employment that grants a high degree of autonomy. “People have a tremendous amount of flexibility here. They are not dropped into a single role. They are allowed to work in areas that they enjoy and that they feel they can be successful in,” Nickellatti explains. Once an individual finds themselves to be successful in an area, they’re granted ownership in that area and allowed to expand themselves in the way they feel is best for both their and the company’s development. This is why, according to Nickelatti, Crown Fence provides its workers with an almost unlimited amount of training and educational benefits that they can leverage to improve their trades and skills. Crown Fence’s vision for each employee is one where workers are encouraged to view their roles not as individual buckets that they are dropped into but rather as an entire area in which they can choose to be successful. Additionally, the social nature of the company has resulted in a sustained focus on numerous safety, health, and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) initiatives. “We have a very healthy culture for safety… All of our foremen are mandated to do a daily safety analysis before we start the work each day…we also sponsor our workmen to complete their OSHA 30 certifications,” Silva states. Crown Fence also keeps its employees up to date on First Aid and CPR via classes in partnership with its Laborers Union. In the realm of environmentalism, the company has been doubling its efforts to secure more fuel-efficient vehicles and enforcing strict recycling standards with itself and its vendors. DRIVING TOWARDS THE FUTURE: Looking ahead, Crown Fence remains poised for continued growth and expansion in the dynamic California market. Leading with its strong ability to successfully execute complex projects with even the most rigorous material specifications, the company’s leadership is confident that its collective employee knowledge and authority will make it the first choice when it comes to taking on large, high-profile projects. By focusing on worker development, renewable energy initiatives, and market expansion, Crown Fence stands ready to meet the evolving needs of its clients and communities. When coupled with its reputable, century-long, track record, it only makes sense that this company has landed itself in such a frontrunning position. “We’ve been around for 100 years for a reason,” Silva states, “[we] identify the changing needs of our clients and then adapt to those needs.” By embracing change, fostering innovation, and nurturing lasting relationships, Crown Fence is primed to embark on the next chapter of its storied journey. Its ability to be highly responsive and actively bid for new projects is still its best form of advertising, and to this day, its name will remain largely associated with delivering top-of-the-line fencing solutions for generations to come. 10 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 11, ISSUE 04
