How Does a Company’s “WHY” Factor into your Supplier / Partner Relationship? 
As employers look to build and improve their supplier / partner relationships, many factors are taken into consideration. For instance, what are the supplier’s capabilities, the quality and execution of their service offerings, growth potential and market competitiveness? But what if the “WHY” a supplier performed the work was equally as important? It is not profit or market share – those are results. The “WHY” simply is what inspires them on a daily basis and others around them to perform their work.
Goodwill Industries of Southeastern Wisconsin operates as a social enterprise. We strive to run operationally excellent, revenue producing businesses to allow us to serve and fulfill our mission of providing training, employment and supportive services for people with disabilities or disadvantages who seek greater independence. For us, it is all about our WHY. Two examples of what we do:
Goodwill Manufacturing provides packaging, assembly and other contract services to a growing array of customers through our territory. We packaged over 42 million units last year and are growing by over 25% this year.
Goodwill TalentBridge is a full service talent acquisition and staffing agency that provides its partner clients with staffing and recruiting solutions in the areas of administrative, manufacturing and professional search and placement. Our access to talent through our Workforce Connection Centers and effective outreach efforts has led to growth of over 40% this year.
Why are we growing? Our customers recognize the value of partnering with us to improve the lives of the people we serve but yet also provide them the results they need to perform in their business.
