List of Programs
Values-Based Leadership
Barnhill's Values-Based Leadership Program is an investment in our people to ignite their potential, enhance their well-being, and general high-performance results. Employees enrolled in the VBL Course Curriculum will take various courses assigned through grouped cohorts. They will also participate in an Insights program to help them gain knowledge on how they operate in a work setting.
Values in Action Awards
At Barnhill, living our core values isn’t just talk—it’s how we get the job done and depend on one another. Values in Action Awards are a chance to spotlight employees who don’t just meet expectations with the way they represent our values—they crush them. Nominated by their peers, these standout team members are selected quarterly by a committee with reps from all across the company. It’s our way of celebrating the folks who make Barnhill stronger every day.
Facilitated Mentorship
At Barnhill, we believe in building each other up, both on and off the job. This program gives employees at any level the chance to grow through a partnership between a Barnhill mentor and a protégé. It’s a voluntary opportunity to become a stronger employee and develop your skills. Mentors share their know-how, abilities, and connections, while protégés gain valuable insights and experience. This program is all about forging relationships built on trust, support, and respect.
