How Landon Drives Impact from the East Coast

Being called impactful can sound superficial or like corporate jargon.

It isn’t just about showing up with a great attitude or staying busy.

When we talk about impactful inside of Clickstop, it’s about the tangible results you drive for our customers and your teammates. It’s about avoiding analysis paralysis, seeing a need, and taking total ownership to make things happen.

Earlier this year, the spotlight turned to our East Coast Distribution Center in South Carolina to recognize someone who has made driving results part of his daily work: Landon Burns.

Seeing the Need, Taking the Lead

Impactful employees don’t wait for a list of instructions when things get complicated. They step up and lead. While working to fulfill part of our largest order in history, Landon demonstrated what it means to perform at a high level under pressure.

As a member of the receiving team, Landon identified potentially critical issues with the first shipment of product. Instead of letting the problem pass or assuming someone else would catch it, he took immediate ownership. He stopped what he was doing and proactively connected the dots between departments to find a solution.

“Landon would be directing the team, providing clear communication to other departments, and demonstrating a strong willingness to take on unfamiliar tasks… he saw that it needed to be addressed quickly and he stepped up to make that happen.”

— Mitch Fekaris, ECDC General Manager

Courageous Communication

Being impactful often requires the courage to speak up when something isn’t right. Landon’s decision to quickly fire off a clear, solution-oriented email allowed the company to be proactive with the customer rather than reactive. Because of his initiative, our customer has been consistently impressed with the service Clickstop provides.

This isn’t a one-time occurrence for Landon. With nearly 15 nominations over the last few quarters from leaders and peers alike, Landon has shown that his impact is consistent. 

Why Your Impact Matters Here

If you are looking for a career where you can take ownership of your work, your contributions are noticed, and your growth is prioritized, Landon’s journey at Clickstop is a roadmap. He describes his time here as a period of gaining immense self-confidence and certainty in his decision-making.

We strive to provide the support, but our employee-owners provide the drive. Landon is a prime example of a young professional who has realized that when you align your work with clear values and a results-oriented mindset, there are no ceilings.

“I literally feel like the sky is my limit right now. Clickstop has allowed me to have so many opportunities right in the palm of my hand.”
