What drives us

Valuing our employees as stakeholders is about creating an environment where people can thrive and grow, be challenged and learn constantly – an environment that thrives on diversity by drawing competitive strength from within.

  • Multistakeholder: We organize, incentivize and measure ourselves against meeting the needs of all of our stakeholders — our customers, our shareholders, our employees and families, our local communities and our world.

  • Mindful: We seek to be present and aware, to be respectful, active listeners (with each other and with our customers alike), and to pay attention to detail. We don’t rush to judgment, and when we are swept up by strong emotions we patiently observe and acknowledge them before reacting. Our mindfulness leads to better understanding, and more respectful, careful and deliberate choices.

  • Driven by excellence: We are driven by our mission and our passion for customer success. Being driven also means that we relentlessly pursue excellence, that we do not tolerate mediocrity, that we reward based on merit, and that we work intensely to achieve our goals. We are a team that seeks to bring everyone along in our collective achievement.

  • High integrity: We seek open and honest communication, and hold ourselves to very high moral and ethical standards. Our customers and partners implicitly experience us as high integrity, and our customer centric choices demonstrate this to them again and again.
