Strong Leaders Share Common Traits<br />

leadership traits. In fact, each year, <strong>Clorox</strong> recognizes outstanding leaders who demonstrate<br />
the <strong>Clorox</strong> leadership traits.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Clorox</strong> Leadership Traits<br />

to stand behind what you believe is right.<br />

<strong>The</strong> four DLI programs currently offered by the company provide unique cross-functional<br />

All employees have a variety of other training programs at their fingertips. <strong>Clorox</strong> offers dozens of<br />
self-paced, online courses and hands-on, instructor-led courses on topics ranging from our company<br />

We also understand that learning is a lifelong pursuit. Our education assistance program provides<br />
financial aid for employees seeking to continue their education by earning degrees or certificates from<br />
regionally and nationally accredited educational institutions. This program assists our employees in<br />
developing skills and knowledge that contribute to their current job and future career opportunities.<br />
