Core Values
Our Vision: Doing Distribution Better
Our Mission: "Together, we will create innovative solutions through experience, technological know-how and by valuing our relationships"
Safety and EnvironmentThe safety of our employees and
everyone we deal with is
paramount. To that end we
conform to the highest standards
of Responsible Care and are
working towards an ESAD II
accreditation. |
TeamworkWe place a great emphasis on
teamwork : the sum of the parts
is always greater than the
whole. It is only by working
together, both internally and
externally that long lasting
partnerships can form for the
benefit of all. We can run parts of our business
differently but they must all
'knit' at the top by good
teamwork and communication so
reducing a 'silo' mentality. |
ResponsibilityResponsibility is important on
both a personal and corporate
level. Giving employees the
responsibility to make decisions
themselves makes their working
life more fullfilling. Social
Responsibility issues such as
child labour, animal testing and
the minimum wage are also
recognised as important. |
EffectivenessBeing effective means producing
powerful effects. Being
efficient means producing
results with little wasted
effort : it's the ability to
carry out actions quickly.
However, by so doing, you may
not necessarily be achieving
effectiveness. Effectiveness allows you to
accomplish the worthwhile goals
you've chosen : i.e. the ones
which support your vision and
your mission and lead to
continuing success. |
TrustWithout trust we can have no
relationships. We foster a
climate of openness within the
organisation and seek to build
the trust of everyone we deal
with. Unless our customers and
principals trust us we cannot
achieve the industry respect we
seek. |
Continuous Improvement and
DevelopmentCornelius is committed to the
training and development of all
our employees and have developed
innovative human resource
policies which aim to make
working for Cornelius an
enjoyable and fulfilling
experience. We encourage our staff to take
responsibility for their own
learning and development. |
HonestyWithout honesty there can be no
Trust. We value honesty within
the organisation and with our
dealings with customers and
suppliers. It is also important to
encourage everyone to be honest
with themselves. |
InnovationThe term innovation may refer to
both radical and incremental
changes to products, processes
or services. "Companies cannot
grow through cost reduction and
re-engineering alone. Innovation is the key element in
providing aggressive top-line
growth, and for increasing
bottom-line results" |
FunEverybody needs a bit of fun in
their lives : work should be fun
too. We want all our employees
to enjoy working for us and
believe that our values makes
doing business with us an
enjoyable experience too. |
