Core Values you can use everywhere!!

I’m a great believer in setting your mission and vision statement. Whether you have a personal goal or a company goal, it’s important to communicate it. Only then can you take identifiable steps towards it. At Fuzzy we truly identify with our values and we will continue to check in on them to make sure they represent who we are. Do you think setting a mission and values help achieve your goals?

Manufacturing has a diversity problem that needs to be tackled head-on. In partnership with Urban Manufacturing Alliance, we're expanding our Industry and Inclusion Coalition—a first-of-a-kind initiative to increase the diversity of the manufacturing workforce by reducing racial disparities in workforce development—with the addition of four prominent regional workforce organizations: The Ohio Manufacturers' Association, Detroit Future City, SEMCA Michigan Works!, and the Cook County Government Bureau of Economic Development. Together, these organizations will use their regional networks to drive positive change in diversity and equity within workforce development and tie unprecedented federal investment manufacturing to long-term career pathways for underrepresented communities.

At RKL LLP, RKL Virtual Management Solutions, and RKL eSolutions, every action that we take is made with our three core values in mind: Bold, Caring, and Collaborative.

We embody caring characteristics by leading with empathy, listening to understand, and living each day with integrity.

It’s personal. But we want to share it with you. Our relationships with our clients. To us, they're about trust, collaboration, and strong support, even through tough times. The key to achieving and succeeding, though, lies in the integrity of the values we share. See what we care about: https://lnkd.in/diri9dv2

Inclusivity, acceptance, understanding so important in todays workplace

At the core, it's about embodying the values we preach. As individuals within this company, our actions become our identity. It's a journey of integrity and service, shaping not just the business but how people perceive us. It's about being genuine, day in and day out.

These values provide us with a common set of principles and behaviors that will help define how we work, make decisions, and collaborate so we can achieve success!

Consider this when considering the company you keep and the company you work for 🤍

Applications are now being accepted for BRAC's 2024 Diversity Star Award! In a Q&A with BRAC, 2019 Large Business winner Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana (BCBSLA) shared some insight on better embracing diversity in the business world. If you want to integrate more robust D&I practices in your organization, setting an example from the top goes a long way. "Develop a business case that clearly communicates why diversity and inclusion are important to the long-term success of your business. The leaders of the organization must be held to the same standards as all other employees," noted Roderic Teamer, director of Diversity Programs and Business Development at BCBSLA. "For example, if training is mandatory for all employees, leaders must also participate. Finally, commit to a long-term strategy. Diversity and inclusion done correctly takes a few years to yield results." Learn more about Diversity Star and nominate your company here: https://bit.ly/3OeQiX5
