Recipients work hard to drive the business community's future and demonstrate dynamic leadership and social responsibility. To honor this year's winners, Crain's produced a special publication with stories and full-color photographs spotlighting each honoree's individual achievements and personality. In addition, an award celebration will be held this month. "This honor is important not only to me but to the larger Regency family," said Dave Gordon, president of Regency Windows. "It speaks to the collective work we've done to continue to improve our organization and put programs and training in place that have made us a leader in the home improvement market. This award is a reflection of those efforts." Regency Windows has been the Cleveland area's largest window dealer for more than 35 years, with more than 80 employees. Since joining Regency, Gordon quickly established key areas of focus and potential for the organization, including geographic expansion, safety improvements, ongoing education for employees and a renewed commitment to the community. Not only did Gordon continue to manage the company's geographic expansion into the Columbus, Ohio market, he also dramatically improved safety standards within the organization. When Gordon joined Regency, it had a safety incident rate of 7.1 per OSHA guidelines, which was slightly below the industry average of 9.4. Committing the company to a comprehensive safety program in 2006, Regency is now proud to have an incident rate of 3.1, and employees are now twice as safe as they were just one year ago, as well as more than three times as safe as the industry average. "This award is a true honor and one that I am proud to receive. It showcases Regency as the leading window and siding company," added Gordon. "I hope to continue to improve our organization and work with our employees to further our tradition of industry leadership."
