Just as with people, businesses have to decide what it is they stand for and believe in if they are to grow. At The Manitowoc Company, our beliefs are best summarized in three core values: Integrity; Commitment to Stakeholders, and Passion for Excellence.
Integrity is the standard of consistency between what we say and what we do. It governs every aspect of our work and means that we:
Do what we say we are going to do
Do the right things
Remain honest and forthright
Our Commitment to Stakeholders governs the way we do business with each other and with the shareholders, suppliers, and communities we serve around the world. It requires us to:
Deliver quality products
Respect work/life balance
Treat others with respect
Hold ourselves and stakeholders accountable
Foster an environment of effective communication
Maintain a safe work environment
Passion for Excellence captures the importance we place on continuous improvement to our products and people. It causes us to:
Drive innovation
Demonstrate effective leadership
Embrace change
Collaborate with each other
We rely on these values every day, throughout the company, to set clear expectations, guide decisions and actions, and measure progress. They help us not only build our personal success, but the successes of our teams, business units, and company as a whole.
