In this week’s episode of Facility Voices, Bert Gumeringer, Senior VP of Facility Operations at Texas Children’s Hospital, sits down with the host of Facility Voices, David Trask, to share his insights into Texas Children's unique challenges, and the innovative employee retention program that's making waves. From personalized welcome letters to one-on-one sessions with executives, this program goes beyond the norm, fostering a strong connection between leadership and staff.
Bert reflects on the impact of COVID-19 on Texas Children's and how the organization invested in its employees during challenging times. From financial bonuses to maintaining a strong connection with remote workers, the hospital prioritized the well-being of its staff, creating a sense of loyalty that extends beyond the workplace. Bert emphasizes the importance of an organizational culture that fosters growth, development, and a sense of belonging. He shares stories of employees who started at entry-level positions and, through opportunities provided by Texas Children's, rose to managerial roles in various departments. Bert reveals the unique family atmosphere within the organization, where employees feel part of something bigger than just a job.
Join us for an engaging conversation that goes beyond facility management, showcasing the human side of running a major healthcare institution.
