Burley on learning how to be a better employer from managing through the pandemic: “We have learned that the health and wellness of our employees is most important, and we continue to remain open-minded when it comes to flex scheduling, remote working options and digital retailing.”

Burley on long-term changes in hiring or employment practices because of the pandemic: “We have a much more flexible schedule with shortened hours. This modified schedule allows for a much better work-life balance than previous schedules.”

Burley on offering employees a career path: “Our succession planning starts the day of a new employee’s interview. We always ask, ‘Where do you see yourself in five years?’ That answer plays a large part in our succession plan.”
