Their SMT endeavour to ensure that business decisions are congruent with their values and that all colleagues are supported in, and recognised for, displaying behaviours in line with their values. Their main meeting rooms and CEO's office prominently display their values, and these are referred to during discussions. Many business visitors are given an overview of their values along with a set of “values cards” - business cards displaying their values. Every candidate is told about their values in the early stages of their recruitment process, and selection always includes questions related to these values. The company have ongoing values nominations where colleagues can nominate each other for behaviours in line with their values. Nominations are displayed on their Intranet and in their atrium, a prize draw is used to recognise nominees every few months and annual values awards are judged and presented by our SMT.
