“Living Values”
throughout the Group
The keys to success for a
business enterprise are many.
A deep attachment to a system
of Values, lived out day by day,
is undoubtedly one such key for
business performance and
personal development.
A “Living Values” seminar was
designed and deployed in 2004
to explain and enhance the
implementation of our Values
and associated behaviours.
Following the success of the
160 seminar sessions organized
at 50 sites across Europe in seven
languages and attended by over
3 000 managers – 95% of whom
have confi rmed that they have
understood the approach and 85%
of whom that they have launched
concrete initiatives – deployment
was extended in 2005 to the Nafta
and Mercosur regions.
In the USA, 800 managers took
the training programme in 2005,
with another 700 signed up
for 2006. >>
