We're a company with a vision to be the best. But we also understand that how we go about our business is as important as what we accomplish. That's where our company culture comes in. We believe a healthy, well-defined culture helps people maximize their performance.
It also helps with team spirit. Each employee brings his or her energy, enthusiasm, and passion for the business to work each day. In return we get to work with people who share ideas, help us meet goals, and support our efforts.
We think of our culture as a "high-performance" culture, one that's driven by core values shared by all of our people.
International's values are about...
- Respect for People
- Customer Focus
- Relentless Pursuit of Quality in All We Do
- Speed, Simplicity, and Agility
- Innovation
- Accountability
- Communication
One of the behaviors associated with our value Accountability, is to act as a good corporate citizen. Toward this end, International employees are involved in their communities with United Way, Junior Achievement, and other local organizations and initiatives. Another behavior, this one associated with the value Respect for People, is to respect each person and value differences whatever their background, race, age, gender, disability, values, lifestyle, perspectives, or interests. This value is supported by our diversity effort.
International's values are more than just talk. They play a role in how we conduct business, how employees are evaluated, who is promoted, and whom we hire. Along with ethical business practices and positive attitude, our values are at the heart of who we are.
