Our values and behaviours
Our values and behaviours apply to everyone here at mhs.
Our success depends on everyone demonstrating our values and behaviours everyday. We use our Leadership Behaviours every day; in our recruitment, appraisals and when we're deciding on the best approach to solving a problem. It's just one of the things that makes us special.
Our PRIDE values
Our PRIDE values guide how we behave and operate:
- Pride – we have pride in the job we do and pride in the organisation. We are all one team. We are all ambassadors for #teammhs.
- Respect – we treat our customers and each other with respect.
- Inclusion – We are an inclusive organisation; we celebrate diversity & want colleagues to bring their whole self to work. We know this diversity brings creative advantage and innovation.
- Driven – we have a ‘can do’ attitude; we adopt a positive, optimistic and proactive approach to all situations. We strive to be the best we can.
- Empathy – we care about people. We listen & seek to understand the experiences, feelings and wishes of other people. We always try to do the ‘right thing’.
