Investing in the local community is a multifaceted endeavor for businesses. It can involve supporting local nonprofits that positively impact the area or delivering products and services that exceed the expectations of residents. Formanek Electric, based in the Black Hills, embodies this commitment. The company not only partners with several local nonprofits but also boasts a team of electricians whose precision and attention to detail are unparalleled locally.
Beyond these contributions, Formanek Electric stands out for fostering a workplace culture centered on support, excellence and growth. Allen Leland, an electrician with the company, said that working on this team makes him reflect on some advice his grandfather shared with him. “My grandfather always told me you need a handful of good friends and a handful of mentors. And I feel like I have both here,” he said. “This is a good company with integrity and a good name.”
Jake Sellers, another team member, highlights the collaborative spirit at Formanek Electric. “We’re really able to help each other out and that improves our knowledge of the electrical fields.”
Similarly, Nick Stetson talks about his personal and professional development within the company. “I’ve been able to grow a lot while I’ve been here. I’ve had a lot of opportunities and it’s been great to be trusted with a higher level of responsibility.”
For Nick Formanek, the founder and owner, investing in his team is not just a strategy but a cornerstone of his business’s success. This investment reflects the team’s commitment to their work and the community they serve. “Building a strong community starts from within our own walls,” said Nick. “Investing in our team is investing in the Black Hills community. Each electrician’s growth and success contribute not only to our company’s excellence but also to the vitality of the area we call home.”
