Our Values
These Values represent the journey we have taken. They represent the best of Genus in the past. They define the Genus of today. They will shape the Genus that we will create for tomorrow. They are the Values by which everyone will benefit, now and in the future.
Honest Communication
The only way to communicate is to be open, honest and transparent.
Everyone's opinion counts, even when it is not the same as our own. So we will listen actively and challenge appropriately. Where confidentiality is necessary we will respect it.
We value Honest Communication.
Because we know lies achieve nothing and truth overrides everything.
Trust
If we do not believe in each other we are nothing.
We assume honest intent. We know people make mistakes but we will learn and not blame. We always demonstrate integrity. We can only thrive when we are positive.
We value Trust.
Because we have no fear of dealing with one another.
Teamwork
Collaboration will bring our goals closer.
Departments cannot become islands. Information, ideas and insight have to be there for all. We support each other, we share what we know with everyone. That is how we build our future together.
We value Teamwork.
Because we are strong as individuals but unbeatable as a team.
Respect
We are all unique. But we all have much in common.
To be at our best we have to create an environment where everyone knows their contribution is valued. To empower our people will be the principle behind our progress.
We value Respect.
Because we treat others as we wish to be treated ourselves.
Ownership
There is more than one way to be brave.
We will not lack for courage on big decisions. We will be clear about what we want to accomplish and take pride in what we achieve. We will take risks when appropriate and celebrate the rewards when they arrive. To succeed in our goals, we must commit to be the best that we can be.
We value Ownership.
Because we take pride in what we do and are not afraid to be accountable for decisions we make.
Innovation
Thinking differently is everyone's job.
We can all be creative. We can all make a difference. We can find a better way to do everything. That is how we achieve. That is how we outperform the rest.
We value Innovation.
Because we will never improve the lives of others if everyone thinks the same.
If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything.
- Mark Twain
