Our shared values
In DEIF, we have strong values – values that all employees have contributed to defining.
We carried out a global value process in 2008-2009 to rephrase our values. The intention was not to invent new values but to assist each other in identifying and expressing them. Consequently, all employees were invited to contribute with their descriptions of the daily life at DEIF through good examples and stories, expressing our values.
That is how we made a model consisting of three themes, which form the basis for how we cooperate and act in DEIF to reach our ambitions and strategic goals:
Ambition
- Do it better than yesterday
- Do it better than our rivals
- Do it better than our customers expect us to
- Show initiative and face challenges
Respect
- Respect the whole person
- Respect cultural differences
- Respect agreements
- Respect individual contributions
Perspective
- Show a holistic understanding
- Be open to possibilities
- Seek insight into customers’ and users’ situation
- Focus on knowledge sharing
