In every situation do what is in the best interest of our clients. Don’t take shortcuts! The goal is to get things “right”, not simply to get things done. This enhances our reputation for integrity and is one of our greatest assets.
Being concerned over who gets credit, who looks bad and who looks good is counterproductive. Make decisions for the good of the client and the company.
Focus on what are our best options to solve the problem.
Do what you say you’re going to when you say you’re going to do it. If a commitment cannot be fulfilled, notify others as soon as possible.
Write and speak in a way that the other person can understand. Remember to treat people as individuals and show them respect at all time.
Be better prepared by anticipating future needs and addressing them today. Be proactive.
Don’t be a “victim”. Ask for what you need and take full responsibility for your success.
