From my experience as a cleaning professional for fifty-three years, I want to share at last how I’ve inspired and motivated my cleaning crews and company personnel that propelled us into a nationwide multi-million dollar corporation: Varsity Contractors, Inc. Five decades of earnest, ardent toil in office buildings, homes, and personal spaces has helped refine the art of building motivation and increasing productivity. By observation and experimentation I traced out the causes of what extinguishes motivation and destroys self-esteem in my employees.

I found invariably that where crews lacked motivation and vitality, working conditions were poor and the leadership also lacked motivation and vitality. Where I found negative attitudes I always found low self-esteem and the lack of a professional identity.

The ingredients to lift company pride, motivate, and create a professional and positive attitude within not only company crews, but leadership as well, is built into Varsity’s JanOPS® Operating System. JanOps is designed to elevate people.

All components of the operating system elevate the cleaners recognizing them as

• protectors of health,

• assets, and

• the environment,

• and acknowledging the tremendous contribution they make to society.

This recipe for upgrading and motivating your crews works wonders. There is an old maxim that says, “The only way to truly elevate yourself, is to elevate another person.” In this case, it’s a system designed to elevate people.
