Katz Group Canada

Management

Individuals that develop and empowering their team and providing the tools to be successful.  Weekly meeting to keep us informed and also a forum to discuss any issues with the finance team to have feedback for resolution.  Measure Track and Attack. Measured productivity so we can find opportunities where improvements can be made.  Brainstorm possible improvements and engage staff so they are also involved in process.  This also give them the forum to voice opinions/concerns.  Weekly one on one so you can ask for guidance review status of projects and ask questions.  Have clarity on expectations.

Culture and type of organization that most appeals to me.

Were new ideas encouraged by the leaders and your co-workers, Where new initiatives supported without reprisal or ridicule in the case of failure.  Leadership through influence and inspiration.

Team Style 

Adaptable, collaborative, deliberate, diplomatic, facilitating, astute, committed, people-oriented
At times I have to drive the projects and time lines, and face being the driver and ensuring each team member meets their work time lines.

Work Style 

Accurate, achieving, driven, competent, consistent, deadline-driven, demanding
Always looking for better ways of doing your job, consistently looking for improvements,  meet your timelines and stick to your employer’s expectations.

Katz Group Canada maintains a very healthy and relaxed atmosphere. As long as you put out good work, most bosses will trust you and leave you to complete the work in the manner you prefer.

Some tasks can be challenging as Katz Group is light years away from technological advancements in certain areas of the business world. Nonetheless, this allows employees to enhance corporate operations and learn what may be forgone in a more technologically and operationally advanced organization.

One major area of concern in this organization is growing within. There is not many opportunities to move up, especially in the finance field; however it is an excellent company to grow in and then move out of.

Start my day with challenges and tight schedules to validate daily scheduler has been updated and processed the required job. Monitor any unprocessed or jobs on hold by computer operations team and follow-up on the status and update stake holders by noon.

Make sure all financial transaction i.e Purrchases, Sales, 3rd Party Claims Receivables, and Cash/Bank Deposits have been posted prior to running weekly reports.

Most of my day was spent supervising, coaching and mentoring pharmacists and front store managers.
I learned how to manage not only people but the professional side of the business.
For the most part very solid management team, good rapport with my co-workers.
Enjoyed working with the people and the professional side of the business.
Hardest part of the job was the extensive travel.

Great company to work for in regards to people, company incentives, and opportunities to learn so much. My resume was easily enhanced from all the opportunities available to take advantage of. We were challenged constantly to be innovative and present efficient ways to improve on our services. I enjoyed the constant challenge.

Rexall is growing! There are many changes on-going and the ability to adapt is my forte.

Sometimes there aren't enough labour hours available in order to avoid a bit of stress. An ability to be organized is tantamount for success as middle manager with Rexall.

I am happy to be a part of this amazing company, where I get a chance to learn and excel in my field. Management is good and understand the work stress and always available for help in certain situations.

One of the best corporate environment I found here, where people meet and greet like a family. Yes the working hours are long but enjoyable, there is a lot of work load but no such stress, Check and balance is there but no Big Brother watch.

Rexall upgraded all corporate stores with new Point of sale systems, including Software, Hardware (Pin pads, RF Units). As Technical and  Systems Analyst, I configured and supported new store launches including acquisition.
