This Danish CEO did something AWESOME for his staff at Christmas

Søren Steffensen, The CEO of Danish supermarket chain Irma, has a simple philosophy: The employees come first.

He also knows that Christmas is the busiest time of year for his people, so he is currently on a tour where he and his top leaders visit all 80 stores to meet the staff, drum up some energy and personally hand out Christmas presents to their people.

What a great thing for a top executive to take time to do, to show people that they’re valued.

The above pic is from one of the Copenhagen stores, where he found the actual, genuine, real Santa Claus behind the register :)
