What are 3 things that a good apology needs? ▪︎ Be genuine ▪︎ Be concise ▪︎ Have a human touch Sorry doesn't have to be the hardest word 🎶 Better yet, don't do anything that needs an apology in the first place. Always a much better option! Be mindful and acknowledge inspirations. Don't steal credit. Be honest. Listen to feedback, especially if you're being called out. It truly isn't all that difficult #TriOnandCo #brandreputation

Recognize the F-MATIC Inc. logo from your drive south on I-15 through Lehi? The company is scent-sational. F-Matic is a fragrance solutions company founded in 1981 by Haruo Miyagi when he relocated from Japan to the U.S. The current president is his son, Hari Miyagi. The company started as an air freshener distributor for commercial spaces, and has broadened its product portfolio to skin care, cleaning solutions, deodorizers and more. Shawn Yeats, chief operating officer, oversees the inner workings of this well-oiled company that has been running for 40+ years. Q: What are the most rewarding parts of your career? A: 1) Mentoring individuals and witnessing their growth into leadership roles with or outside F-Matic. 2) Innovation — whether it's introducing something new to the market or improving upon existing products. 3) Strategic planning. I enjoy the challenge propelling the company forward through well-crafted strategic initiatives. Q: What is a professional challenge you have faced? A: Managing growth. While growth is desirable, it also presents numerous challenges. It's crucial to be prepared and understand the potential challenges that come with growth before actively pursuing it. Q: What’s a skill you’ve gained throughout your career? A: I've discovered that every individual who works for me brings their own strengths, perspectives and work styles to the table. Learning to effectively manage a large team with diverse skill sets was initially challenging and didn't come naturally to me. However, over time, embracing and managing these differences is what makes my job enjoyable and rewarding. Q: Any exciting things on the horizon for F-Matic? A: A few years ago, we established a distribution center in Europe, and our primary focus now is on expanding our European operations. Our goal is to ensure that everyone, regardless of location, can experience the wonderful fragrances we have to offer, whether in their homes or businesses. We're here to enhance every fragrance experience! #fmatic #commercialcleaning #utahvalleybusiness #airfreshener #longhaulbusiness
