SUCCESS STORIES
John Tully
Regional Manager
“Values . . .” was the quick, matter-of-fact response from John, when asked to pinpoint the most common denominator among NPL employees.
“People here share the same values. All employees are grateful for the opportunity to make a career for themselves, know the value of hard work and its rewards, and consistently live NPL’s Core Values. That environment is one that makes coming to work everyday exciting.”
Why did John join NPL? He saw a contractor with a people-first, team-oriented approach.
“When I started in the industry, the standard was to maintain a rift between the laborers and the management. NPL entered the east coast with a much different approach . . . and I saw opportunity there.
“NPL believed that the work should be done as a team and that responsibility should be driven down as far as possible. NPL really allowed each employee to take as much responsibility as he or she wanted and could reasonable handle.”
That’s why John believes success is available to every employee.
“The opportunities for success are even greater today than they were when I started here. At NPL, any self-motivated employee with the desire to succeed will succeed.
“We have a unique system where foremen and superintendents want their laborers to promote themselves, and laborers take advantage of the opportunity to better themselves and advance.”
John continues to foster an environment where people come first.
“My biggest motivator is my obligation to take care of the employees that work for me. I am fortunate to be able to take care of so many employees; and I fight my hardest to make sure that all my people can provide for their families.”
And that is an environment everyone wants to work in . . .
