Our Values
Values are an organisation's framework for the way we do
things, our "guiding beacon" directing the process of organisational development
and growth. They relate to how we deal with our beliefs about people and work
and they underpin the organisation's vision. Values are "living documents"
supported by action at every level of the organisation and translated into
measurable outcomes.
In
April 2007 we commenced a project to determine a set of core Values and
Behaviours in collaboration with staff, key partners, union representatives, and
stakeholders. Over the project period nearly 500 people participated in
workshops and conversations. When collated, the outcomes clearly identified the
five core values and behaviours that people want to see in this
organisation.
- People First - Taangata i te tuatahi - People are
central to all that we do
- Respect - Whakaute (tuku mana) - We treat others
as we would like to be treated
- Caring - Manaaki - We nurture those around us, and
treat all with dignity and compassion
- Communication - Whakawhitiwhiti korero - We
communicate openly, safely and with respect to promote clear understanding
- Excellence - Taumata teitei (hiranga) - Our
attitude of excellence inspires confidence and innovation
