Example of a “well known” firm’s values:
● Communication
➢ We have an obligation to communicate. Here, we take the time to talk with one
another and listen. We believe that information is meant to move, and that
information moves people
● Respect
➢ We treat others as we would like to be treated ourselves. We do not tolerate
abusive or disrespectful treatment
● Integrity
➢ We work with customers and prospects openly, honestly and sincerely. When we
say we will do something, we will do it.
● Excellence
➢ We are satisfied with nothing less than the very best in everything we do. We will
continue to raise the bar for everything we do. We will have fun discovering how
good we can be
● A Good Bugger is someone who:
● is fun to be with;
● puts their people first;
● is a leader;
● plays above the line;
● is innovative and provides excellence;
● is committed to satisfying.
To get everyone home safely each night.
Fair days pay for a fair days work.
Promote Isaac’s positively.
Do it right first time.
Don’t take the piss.
