Wins First-Ever Leadership Character Award
Founded in 1983 on the principles of integrity, fairness, genuine care for people, and a commitment to excellence, MATRIX Resources has now been recognized for its longstanding commitment to practicing these principles every day, everywhere, and with every individual.
Atlanta-based Turknett Leadership Group, long known for its work with executives and organizations in the areas of integrity and character, has chosen MATRIX to receive the first-ever Leadership Character Award among a select group of Georgia leaders and organizations that best exemplify the standards set forth in the Turknett Leadership Character Model. MATRIX was the honoree in the category “Large Organization.”

 “At a time when so much of the news in business is focused on unethical activities,” says Bob Turknett, co-founder and CEO of Turknett Leadership Group, “we feel it is time to honor those like MATRIX who exemplify the best in Georgia business today.”
“MATRIX is an extraordinary company, one with a defined set of values and public measurements to hold themselves accountable, a massive outreach program that has helped more than 2,500 job seekers learn essential skills in a time of great need, a company that posts its values on every business card, and proudly accepts the implied commitment each time a business card is given out,” Turknett added.
Frank Skinner, a member of the awards panel and retired president of BellSouth Telecommunications, said, “MATRIX Resources was founded in 1983 on principles of integrity, fairness, a genuine care for people, and a commitment to excellence. In 2002, this company formalized their identity, foundational values, and vision into a charter statement. They hold themselves accountable to the Charter both internally and externally… It is neither coincidental nor accidental that there is a driving force behind the values, the culture and the community focus of the MATRIX Resources organization.”
MATRIX was chosen based on the degree to which it exhibits the qualities of Organization Character. Organizations with character have unquestioned integrity, treat their customers, suppliers and each other with respect, and maintain a culture in which everyone takes responsibility for achieving results and upholding the values.
