In October 2003, Oppy’s new positioning statement expect the world from us was introduced, heightening our reputation of superior customer service and unshakeable teamwork. As our promise began making waves through the industry in 2004, an idea sparked during a senior management meeting — to create a structure for leadership development that would best equip teammates for the exciting growth ahead.
