InCord is pleased to announce that it has been named among the Hartford Business Journal's 2023 Connecticut Family Business Honorees, one of the five companies selected in its category. These awards acknowledge exceptional accomplishments in family-owned businesses based in Connecticut. The recognition is a testament to InCord’s core values that are deeply ingrained in our daily work culture.
InCord was founded on the principle that a work environment must be tended to, watched over, and cared for as a living entity. Pioneers Ed Ritz and Bob and Mary Martin started InCord with the intention of creating a different kind of company—an exemplary workplace from the perspective of employees, starting with themselves.
At InCord, we believe the role of management is to serve — to create a safe haven. In this trusting environment, employees can feel and express themselves honestly and without fear.
“We operate by servant leadership here, and I really enjoy helping employees use their skills to elevate themselves,” Meredith Shay explains. “Treating employees right, supporting their goals, caring about their personal life, benefits them and our company.”
