• We are close to our customers, we believe a personal touch is crucial in all our client contacts.
• We communicate directly with each other, but we treat each other with respect.
• We expect everyone to speak their mind, and we expect everyone to listen to others.
• We work autonomously; we take ownership and initiative in our jobs.
