It isn’t often that you hear of a business person stepping up to be a hero in their community, but Kfir Gavrieli is not your average CEO. As the founder of Tieks women’s ballet-style shoes, he has been immeasurably successful with his “online only” way of doing business. The skills he learned and the strategies he put into practice prepared him to pull his team together and make a difference during the worst years of the pandemic.
Making Masks for Health Workers
During the height of the pandemic, healthcare workers were the most at risk of contracting COVID-19, and having masks available was necessary to protect them. When shortages hit, Kfir Gavrieli personally created thousands of masks for these workers and got his team, followers, and fans to help out as well. The end result was the creation of over a million masks that helped these essential healthcare workers stay as safe as possible while doing their jobs.
Being an Everyday Hero
Kfir Gavrieli has put a lot of thought into what it means to be a hero. While he was greatly praised for his actions, he insisted that heroes are always there in our daily lives. To him, a hero is someone who puts others first before their own needs. He listed healthcare workers as among his top heroes, as well as members of his own team who were essential in helping create the Covid masks.
The Power of Teamwork
Another factor that Gavrieli insists is essential to being a hero in today’s world is the value of teamwork. He says that being able to work together in times of hardship is critical and that a community is stronger when they support one another. After his experience with creating masks for COVID-19, he believes that this power has grown even stronger. Refer to this article to learn more.
