Our Core Values
They're who we are. The fabric of our people.
At the heart of Aviawest is what sets us apart from the rest: our core values. They are, in a nutshell, what we believe in and they guide our past, present and future successes.
We are in the business of enhancing lives by providing remarkable lifestyle experiences at outstanding value. We do that by staying true to our core values:
→ Respect the individual.
Treat everyone as you'd like to be treated.
→ Exceed expectations.
Under-promise and over-deliver.
→ Get the important things done.
Focus on what really matters.
→ Life's Short. Live Better.
Travel, live well and spend time with loved ones.
→ Give your best.
Choose to be your best and help others achieve theirs.
- Keep things simple. Less is more
- Swim upstream. Just because others aren't doing, it doesn't mean it's not a great idea
- Have fun at work. Laugh and keep it light. Life is short
- Be socially responsible. Support and give generously to your community
- Adopt a healthy lifestyle. Exercise. Eat right. You'll be happier, more productive, and a better person for it
- Be thrifty. Every dollar counts. There is only one degree of separation between being profitable and not. Without profit, we won't stay in business long
- Embrace change. Change opens up opportunities for growth
- Respect the individual. Respect your co-workers, guests and supervisors
- Embrace challenges. Nothing worth having is easy to obtain. Great things usually come as result of hard work, focus, purposeful thought, planning and final execution
- Keep learning. If you're not learning, you are going backwards. Over a lifetime, one hour a day of reading will mean you've read over 2000 books
- Work as a team. No one "works" for anyone at Aviawest. We work together to achieve common goals
- Focus on what matters. Talk is cheap. Execution is everything
- Work hard, and play hard. Family time and personal pursuits are important
- Make a daily to-do list. Pick the most difficult item and do it first
- Make a daily stop-doing list. Stop doing things that aren't worthwhile doing
- Consistency makes a champion
- Keep your word. Strive for accuracy and think before you speak
- Our owners and guests are why we exist. Treat them accordingly
- Brevity. Be respectful of others' time, and communicate efficiently
- E-mail. Praise is good. Never send a nasty e-mail. Nothing good comes from it
