Being best requires real commitment

JOHN BUSHEE, an employee of Advanced Financial Services, leads an in-house coaching session for sales managers. Such work force development efforts are one reason AFS has ranked No. 1 among large businesses in the Best Places to Work in Rhode Island competition for three years in a row.

Advanced Financial Services has been judged the leading large company in Providence Business News’ Best Places To Work in Rhode Island competition in each of the three years we have sponsored the contest, which is judged by the Best Companies Group.

So it is fitting that one of their in-house coaching sessions for sales managers should be the photograph on the cover of this year’s special section celebrating all the winners. The image shows AFS employee John Bushee talking about the key components of managing people well.

Investing in its people is a key reason that AFS fares so well in this competition, a trait it shares with the 22 other companies that are recognized here. Read carefully to learn about the many ways that the Best Places To Work take care of business.
