We continue to operate and grow our firm based on these core principles.
Stay client focused and results driven.
The dedication of Jacques Whitford personnel to client service is legendary. Nothing supersedes client service in our business hierarchy. We believe this zealous dedication separates us from the pack of otherwise competent consultants. By listening to and learning from our clients, we understand their business needs and can apply all our creative and intellectual energies to meet them.
The best people attract the best clients and the most rewarding professional challenges.
We pride ourselves in attracting and retaining professionals with the brains, technical capabilities, creativity and ‘can do, will do’ attitude that our clients expect. When we exceed those expectations, clients continue to bring their challenges to us.
Know where you want to go, and how you intend to get there.
Our goals come from knowing who we are and what we aspire to; and having a far-reaching forward vision based on an honest appraisal of our strengths, challenges and opportunities. We attain our objectives through thoughtful strategic planning and determined actions.
Your path should be as rewarding as your destination.
We know people seek more than just material rewards. They want opportunities to stretch and be challenged professionally, personally and creatively. To excel and to be accountable for excellence -- to feel good about what they are doing in a great work environment that attracts similarly talented, skilled people.
When people are your greatest asset, treat them as such.
We’re in this for the long haul and we know that our people are our most essential asset. Valuing, rewarding and supporting them includes providing progressive tools, professional development, benefits and rewards programs. How we treat each other as colleagues and employees defines our culture and affects our organization’s morale and effectiveness.
Recognize all contributions to success.
We recognize and reward all the ways our people contribute to our success. As a 100% employee-owned company, we offer outstanding professionals the opportunity to be nominated as Jacques Whitford shareholders -- to help chart the course of our firm and share the benefits of our consistently strong performance.
Our team is more than a collection of individuals.
Collaboration is the best way to foster creativity and to meet challenges. We encourage teams within and between disciplines and geographies. Time and again, we have seen extraordinary results come from groups with complementary skills and experience challenging and supporting each other to find the best solution.
We are responsible for our actions today and their effects tomorrow.
A truly sustainable enterprise takes an active approach to sustainability and endeavors to enhance environmental, economic and social conditions. We work hard to exemplify these approaches throughout our organization and to make sustainability the lens through which we add value to all our client services.
