A CHANGE IN PHILOSOPHY
Winners of numerous community awards,
Medic-One remains one of the top com-
panies to work for in the state of Arkansas
and Missouri. When asked about individu-
al award success, Kibler was quick to shun
the attention; instead, he praised the efforts
of his team and stressed the importance of
community.
“I’ve changed my management philosophy
this last year to on-boarding,” he said. “What
I’m trying to do is get my employees’ ideas
and thoughts brought into the leadership
cycle while working as a whole in a group.”
“By getting the men and women who are
working out in the field every day to bring
home that personalized and compassionate
care, I want them to realize that they’re a
very key piece of our business.”
This change in thinking and philosophy has
led to further developments by Medic-One.
As a community program, Kibler has em-
braced the partnerships in a bid to enhance
and expand not just marketing efforts, but
outreach.
