New TeamSpirit Core Values To Prepare For The Next
Stage of Growth
In August last year,
TeamSpirit Inc celebrated the second anniversary of our listing on the Tokyo
Stock Exchange. Correspondingly, we renewed our core values to welcome the new
stage of growth for the next ten years. As our organization expands, we also
began to see signs of the big company disease.
In order to realize our
mission, “Make Everyone An Innovator”, we formulated the following core values
with the aim of transforming the factors that hinder innovation from within the
organization.
- Customer Value
A commitment to create value
that our customers are not aware of.
- TeamSpirit
A circle of contribution with
our stakeholders with integrity and respect.
- Innovation
Create an ideal vision,
experiment at the speed of light, and learn from our mistakes.
- Re:Start-up
Every day we go back to the
first day of the startup and explore the unknown.
In addition, as a foundation
for spreading these values throughout the company and to encourage employees to
embody them, we have launched an initiative called “Hidden Heroes”.
Employees vote internally on a set of good internal initiatives that align with
the TeamSpirit new core values, and the results are announced at a company-wide
meeting.
This enables employees to
recognize the specific actions that are indicated by the core values, which are
abstract concepts, and to visualize themselves embodying the core values and
incorporate them into their daily actions. Even though in-person communication
opportunities are decreasing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this initiative has
been very well received by employees.
