LifeBook completes its first American corporate history project<\/h2>\n

Last month, the team at LifeBook were delighted to receive finished copies of the latest, and first American, corporate history, completed by our bespoke\u00a0team.<\/p>\n

From Cotton Fields to Sky Scrapers: The Story of\u00a0SteelFab, Inc.<\/a><\/em>\u00a0is a highly illustrated corporate history which chronicles the rise of what began as a small family business in ornamental handrails in the 1950s and is now a leader of the steel fabrication trade.<\/p>\n

How the book was written<\/h3>\n

In May 2017, LifeBook’s bespoke director, Yvette Conn, along with a specialist corporate interviewer-ghostwriter, spent a week at the SteelFab, Inc. head office in Charlotte, NC, conducting face-to-face interviews with SteelFab, Inc.\u2019s management team. Through these interviews, our own extensive research and working closely with SteelFab, Inc.\u2019s chairman and CEO, Glenn Sherrill, our team was able to build a full historical picture of the company, their journey and the philosophies that have given them the outstanding reputation they have today.<\/p>\n

The text was carefully edited by our in-house professional team, before our art director compiled all the material into a beautifully designed and highly artistic tome which now sits proudly in both the SteelFab, Inc. offices and LifeBook\u2019s own private library.<\/p>\n

Why write a corporate history<\/h3>\n

LifeBook is all about creating private legacies for families to share with future generations; corporate histories are no different. To every business, there is a personal, human side which can often be lost amongst financial reports and annual reviews. LifeBook specialise in relating the human story to the business story, detailing how the two are inextricably linked and preserving them for both future employees and the families involved. Glenn Sherrill sums up the importance of this in the foreword of\u00a0From Cotton Fields to Skyscrapers<\/em>:<\/p>\n

After 62 years, we believe the timing is appropriate for the story of our family business, SteelFab, Inc., to be put into writing for future colleagues and family members to read.<\/em><\/p>\n

This book is intended to preserve the early history of SteelFab, Inc. so that the company\u2019s future employees and leaders may remain mindful of the company\u2019s beginnings, the values, and the culture originally instilled in SteelFab, Inc.\u2019s philosophy by J. Glenn Sherrill.<\/em><\/p>\n

If you own a business and would like its legacy preserved, please contact us<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
