Akramoff envisions a world in which:

workplaces are positive, purposeful, productive and healthy, promoting the success and satisfaction of workers and managers and carrying over to improved customer experience.

We live in a world in which many workplaces are toxic. Workers feel unfulfilled, unhappy, and unappreciated, and their workplace productivity and their lives overall reflect the disillusionment they feel for their professional lives.

The Akramoff Family

To the Akramoffs, success is measured by how many people you impact in a positive way, your integrity, and your persistence in the face of obstacles.

The Akramoff Family

To the Akramoffs, success is measured by how many people you impact in a positive way, your integrity, and your persistence in the face of obstacles. As members and friends of the Akramoff family, we see it as our responsibility to use our gifts, skills, and passion to influence change and positiveness in the world. We are willing to take risks by doing and saying the hard things, always coming from a place of caring and leading in our way. Our family ancestors instilled in us the sense of responsibility, honor, and the willingness to stand alone against the wind.

For George and Louise Akramoff, patriarch and matriarch of the family, community service was a daily ritual in both career and free time. They were committed to making people’s lives better in any way they could and were willing to sacrifice their time, resources, and sometimes risk isolation to do the right thing for others. George was a New York State Trooper, a volunteer fireman and emergency squad member, a member of the library board, and a Red Cross volunteer for 45 years. Louise was a Village Clerk, a women’s fire department auxiliary member, a school board member, and was active in local politics. George always said, “You can learn something from everyone if you are willing to pay attention, set your opinion aside, and listen.”

The Birth of a Movement

The Akramoff company and movement was founded by Glenn Akramoff as a response to losing friends to workplace-related mental illness.

The Birth of a Movement

The Akramoff company and movement was founded by Glenn Akramoff as a response to losing friends to workplace-related mental illness. No workplace should be so unhealthy that its workers can be driven into such despair because of their work.

Glenn, successful and established workplace consultant, leader, and Founder of the Akramoff company and movement, is the son of Akramoff family patriarch and matriarch George and Louise. He started out in public works at 19 as a temporary maintenance worker in the Akramoff family hometown in Upstate New York, and with time worked his way up to become City Manager to kick off a successful career leading municipal organizations to be maximally healthy and productive. In recent years he has consulted for companies and municipal organizations who seek his expertise and experience, and Glenn has seen excellent results with his many clients.

Glenn credits much of his success to remembering where he came from and the ethic and code of conduct of the Akramoff family. He today leads Akramoff to foster the creation of workplaces which promote wellbeing, health, and actualization of human potential. He is committed to see the end of the workplace desperation which hurts so many workers.

This Movement Is About You

Look at those around you in your organization. What do you see?
Do you see purposeful resolve or quiet desperation, or maybe something in between?
Where are you on that scale?

 

You do not have to settle for just a job; no one does. You can have the dream of meaningful contribution regardless of your career choice. Imagine a world where each person was working toward their personal purpose and serving others at the same time. This is not impossible; it is attainable for everyone. Creating purposeful workplaces in which people are encouraged to live in alignment with their personal purpose, as well as that of their organization, is everyone’s responsibility.

 

If not now, when? If not you, then who? Join Akramoff in changing lives and changing your workplace. Akramoff seeks leaders who share this vision of creating healthier, more positive work environments for their teams and organizations. Through educating leaders, offering support, and providing workplace services to struggling organizations, Akramoff leads the way and seeks leaders to join along.

We have four guiding principles:

Do things right, do the right thing.

Be a great teammate.

Know we are accountable for what we say and do.

When we think we are finished we take one more step.

Our Brand Name and Logo

As the central part of the brand’s message is inspired by the Akramoff family’s dedication to serving others, it was only appropriate to name the brand after the family. Furthermore, by calling the brand by the Akramoff family name, prospective stakeholders in the brand – potential clients, potential partners, and all others – can see how they can fit into the Akramoff family culture and mission. A family is an inclusive unit, united by a sense of mission of mutual responsibility and care, which is what Akramoff as a company and movement seeks to promote.

Naming the brand by a family name also highlights the relationship-centric emphasis the brand carries. The people Akramoff wants to partner with are people who value their relationships with others and want to see those around them thrive. Family names are also a mark of family pride and tradition, with most of the largest consulting firms bearing family names – McKinsey & Co, Bain & Co, Deloitte, Booz Allen Hamilton, Ernst & Young, etc. Giving Akramoff a comparable name taps into this feeling of family-centered, proud professionalism.

Logo: The Simplex

The icon in Akramoff’s logo is the three-dimensional simplex, or tetrahedron. ‘Simplex’ is a beautiful word in that it literally combines the words ‘simple’ and ‘complex,’ representative of the teachings Akramoff offers the world which are, in Glenn’s words, “simple, but not simple to implement.”

Logo Information

In mathematics, a simplex is “a generalization of the notion of a triangle or tetrahedron to arbitrary dimensions.” In layman’s terms, a simplex is an exceedingly simple shape, but which can be scaled repeatedly into other dimensions to create ever more advanced – yet still simple – structures. Akramoff enables workplaces to do the same. By reformatting the workplace into a place structured for happiness and productivity, Akramoff provides work cultures the kind of simplicity and organization needed to enable radical growth in business success and human flourishing.
