Introducing PC&D’s Inaugural Champions of Charity Class

These companies continue to make an impact in the world every day.

We are proud to announce our inaugural Champions of Charity winners. This program was derived from years of observations of charitable deeds on all sides of the automotive industry. The Professional Carwashing & Detailing (PC&D) team has wanted to showcase the amazing companies that do good in their communities and throughout the U.S., and now we are able to do just that with this special section.

During the nomination period, we received many great submissions. We would like to thank all of the nominators who took the time to share their company’s or another company’s acts of kindness and examples of compassion.

Our team carefully considered all submissions, and narrowing down the list to highlight for this year’s class was challenging in many ways. In the end, we chose 10 companies in the industry to highlight this year.

The 2023 PC&D Champions of Charity class includes:

How to decide on a team leader

When identifying a team leader, it’s not just about picking the highest performing employee; instead, it’s about finding a top employee who makes other teammates better.

Every company wants a star player on the team, but if other employees can’t stand working with that teammate, the rest of the team suffers and produces diminished results. And, as an owner, if you’re elevating and rewarding a selfish star player, it’s coming at the expense of the other employees’ confidence and self-worth.
