If you ve got it, we can probably help you put it to work and make it grow. Our people are encouraged to contribute to the limit of their talents. For instance, it is not unusual for exploration prospects calling for substantial capital investment to be presented to management by the people responsible for developing and analyzing the data, even when some of them are young associate geologists. Relatively small work units contribute to an atmosphere of cooperation and teamwork. The sense of participation here touches everyone.
Newcomers often comment about the degree of management involvement in projects.
The close working relationships that result punctuate an environment that is both efficient and challenging. Though lines of authority and responsibility are clearly drawn, we do not operate on the premise that managers know it all and employees do it all. Because we believe that everyone in a professional position should have the talent to make an impact on the bottom line, we encourage participation by all concerned in the decision-making process. The concept of a work environment that shuns excessively rigid formalities and promotes full participation in achieving company s objectives is an interesting idea on paper. In fact, we're convinced of it.
