VALUES:
AspireNow is its people and the values by which we live.
Our
People: We attract and recruit the finest people in the world. We build our
organization from within, promoting and rewarding people without regard to any
difference unrelated to performance. We act on the conviction that the men and
women of AspireNow will always be our most important asset.
Leadership:
To us, leadership is clear vision, embracing dreams, thinking outside of the
box, demonstrating integrity through example, and marshalling resources that
best enable us to achieve our objectives and eliminate barriers to our
success.
Ownership:
We own our business needs and help others improve their effectiveness. We
believe the best employees act like owners in the company, treat the company's
assets as our own, and act with the company's long-term success in mind. We
act as owners in our customer's proposals, as well, to best serve them in our
services.
Integrity:
We seek to do the right thing at all times. We are direct, honest, and
straight-forward with each other. We are lawful and good corporate citizens.
We uphold the values and principles in our actions. We advocate thought-out
proposals that take into account the challenges in realistically reaching each
solution we propose. We under-commit and over-deliver in our actions.
Winning:
To win is to do what is most important right now. We are dissatisfied with the
status quo, mediocrity, or incompetence. We are determined to be the best in
each area of business we focus upon and win in the marketplace.
Trust:
We respect our customers, each other, and treat others as we wish to be
treated. We are confident in each other and give trust before it is earned, as
we believe people work best when trust is a foundation.
Respect:
We show respect for all individuals. We believe each person we work with will
contribute to their fullest potential. We value differences in each other, the
way we work, and the way we think. We inspire and enable people to achieve
high expectations, standards, and challenging goals. We are honest with people
about their performance. We act in ways loving to each other and dignify each
other's existence.
Fun:
We approach our work with a sense of fun and play. We encourage other leaders
to encourage fun and play in their work environments and also to participate
in company-sponsored events away from work helping to better build team. We
believe we build more trust in each other this way, and also get to know each
other through sharing fun events and meals together.
Interests:
The interests of AspireNow and the Individual are the same. Doing what is
right for AspireNow's business with integrity will mutually benefit the
company and the individual. Our quest for mutual success binds our common
purpose. We seek ownership behavior in each other and we are willing to
challenge each other in order to create better ideas and processes for our
customers.
Innovation:
To us, innovation must be encouraged at all times, because it is the
cornerstone to our success. We believe that many ideas will fail, but the
ideas that succeed will pay for the loss generated by learning experiences. As
a result, we place great value on thinking big, and on new innovations in
business structure, process, and product/service improvements. It is important
to challenge convention and revolutionize the way we do business to better win
in our marketplace. It is important to always speak ideas and thoughts freely
so as to encourage innovation in each other.
Strategy:
Our strategies are clearly stated and our objectives align with our
strategies. Our focus is to only do work and ask for work that adds value to
the business. We simplify our current work whenever possible.
Leader
Focus: We focus our attention to our customers and their needs. All of our
services come from what our business leaders want and need, rather than upon
what we want to give or sell. We develop superior understanding of business
leaders and their needs. We create and deliver solutions that build winning
service equities. We build mutually productive relationships with our
customers and suppliers.
Giving
Back: We believe in giving back to our society in both time and money. We
believe in working with organizations and university leader who also create
ways to giving back to each other and society.
Mastery:
We believe it is the responsible of all individuals to develop themselves and
others. We aim to help people develop their own sense of Life Purpose, their
own style of Elegant Simplicity and build Smooth Sailing relationships --
because when people are empowered they are more successful. We encourage
everyone we interact with to be the best and do the very best with what
they've been given. We strive to master our language and ability to
communicate clearly with each other. We learn from both success and failure.
