Employees’ favorite perk: Staffers value having a relationship and direct line of contact with the leaders and stakeholders of the company. There’s always opportunity to bring new ideas to the table and everyone’s opinions are valued. 

Co-owner of Harper+Scott, Michael Scott Cohen, talks to ASI's Editorial Director Michele Bell about building a collaborative culture, finding and keeping staffers in a tight job market and the one thing he's trying to make happen for the women on his team.

Tip for finding/retaining great staff: “We strive to create a diverse, passionate team where individuals come from different backgrounds,” says Lauren Cohen, director of marketing. “Employees value being able to grow within the company and learn from their colleagues. Ultimately, this welcoming environment increases retention and attracts top talent.”

Company culture mantra: It’s simple: “Bring ideas,” says Cohen.
