Corporate Responsibility
The values of AJS are founded on moral principles, trust, integrity, honor, and respect. While adhering to these fundamentals we exercise a level of humbleness and respect for others as our industry is one that requires ongoing collaboration and healthy relationships. A strong culture anchored on a clear set of values is essential to build an organization that is capable to make a real difference.
INTEGRITY
Integrity means distinguishing right from wrong and then doing the right thing. We represent our clients and our capabilities honestly. We only make promises we can keep. We take the time to consider our actions and consider the ramifications. We also do not win favor from a client by being harsh or unfair with contractors and consultants.
DIVERSITY
Our business is our people; we strive for a diverse workforce. It is fundamental to our success that we accept, value, and incorporate the contribution of people from a wide variety of backgrounds. The
diversity of thought and creativity are pivotal to creating an environment where innovation and new
ideas can emerge.
CLIENT SUCCESS IS OUR SUCCESS
We seek to satisfy our clients real needs, not just delivering a service or good work. AJS will resource projects appropriately according to our clients’ objectives and we commit ourselves to that success wholeheartedly. We measure our success by our clients’ success.
ADDED VALUE – DELIVERED
It is our aim to enhance our clients’ capabilities to allow them to have a competitive advantage. We set our standard of value creation quite high, more than our fee for the project. This leads to positive change and tangible value, not just presentations or ideas. We hold ourselves accountable for doing this and engage candidly about the outcome of joint efforts.
PARTNERSHIP
Partnership is the basis of our client approach. We respect our clients and fully appreciate the challenges they face. By taking a long, lasting view of our relationships we maintain credibility and longevity, essential for a sustainable organization.
PROBLEM SOLVING
We start with the principle that all problems are solvable and that in some cases best practice from the past may not always help. Each clients’ problems are treated as unique and multiple options are always considered. We believe that breakthrough solutions come from an integrated team approach after thorough analysis.
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILTY
At AJS we wholehearted believe that we can make the world a better place through our pro bono efforts and consideration for our community. We will continue to donate a portion of our time and resources to key community issues and institutes which we think will make a positive difference to California. As the world’s population continues to grow, ensuring the sustainability of our environment is a fundamental responsibility.
