OUR PEOPLE
Rexam way impact program
Three years after its launch, The Rexam Way
still plays a big part in everything we do, but
how does it help improve our performance
and create a single culture?
Nick Richardson,
Program Director for the
Rexam Way Impact
Program, reminds us
how creating a single
culture adds value to the
Rexam Way and the
whole company.
“As we have been rolling out the Impact
Program throughout the business, I have been
consistently asked three questions; Why is the
Rexam vision important? What is the purpose
of the Rexam Way? and, How are they going
to contribute to improving our performance?
These are important questions which need
answers if Rexam is to continue to grow. To
start with, we need to look at our vision… ”
”To be the leading
consumer
packaging group.”
Our Vision – Why is it important?
Our vision is a clear signpost to the future and
provides a valuable focus to all our stakeholders
- customers, employees, investors and
even suppliers. Once we know where we are
going as a business, we can define relevant
strategies to take us on this road. This alignment
responsibility
case study
across all areas of Rexam significantly
improves our chances of success.
Our vision provides a signpost of where
Rexam intends to be in the future. It explains
the business we are in and provides a shared
sense of purpose and focus for all of our efforts.
It is the forward thinking image that we must
have of our goals.
What is The Rexam Way?
The Rexam Way is a combination of strategic
business initiatives, built on our core values,
that guide us, express our beliefs and reflect
our hopes for the kind of company we want
to create. They are shared beliefs that will
take us towards our Vision. The Rexam Way
therefore connects our vision to our values
and is comprised of seven core elements;
Vision – the overall statement of what Rexam
is seeking to become, this explains what we
want to be.
Mission – the overall direction that way we
have decided we need to reach the vision.
Strategic Measures – how Rexam’s performance
will be evaluated by employees, suppliers,
customers, shareholders and analysts etc.
Which is vital in attracting investment into our
business.
Tactical Measures – these are indicators that
will tell us if we are on the right road. These
are things we can probably see and assess
ourselves against each day.
Tactical Objectives – The goals and objectives
that we encounter each day, these are things
