Together the Siegfried family and NORDAM
stakeholders continue to deliver generous,
focused leadership and frontline accountability,
a dynamic interplay that has enabled
NORDAM to flourish for decades. The
company’s worldwide reach and its strong
standard for leadership remain vibrant as
it places a great priority upon community
service as overseen by the NORDAM Office of
Corporate Responsibility. Through this team,
the company supports the communities
where it operates by coordinating involvement
in multiple charity organizations,
encouraging stakeholder philanthropy and
volunteerism. Likewise, NORDAM has long
been the presenting sponsor of Tulsa Charity
Fight Night—created by Ray and continued
by his children—spanning twenty-two years
of financial support for Tulsa charities. In
2014 the illustrious black-tie event was reconceived
with a new name—Flight Night—a
new format with appeal to a wider audience,
and a new cause campaign: bolstering the
advancement of Tulsa area business, education,
and community interests related to science,
technology, engineering, and mathematics
(STEM) education.
NORDAM’s continued success and growth
has advanced the Tulsa area through provision
of career positions since 1969. The company
currently provides some 1,800 Tulsa-area
jobs. Stakeholders enjoy a thorough health
and wellness program, featuring onsite clinics;
financial incentives for routine physicals,
dental visits, regular exercise and more; discounted
entry fees for area athletic competitions
and fitness clubs; and a ‘lunch ordering
service,’ facilitated via the company intranet,
wherein stakeholders may order a healthful
lunch or dinner delivered to their work locations
from a different local restaurant each
weekday with no charge for delivery.
