how we interact with each other, Goodwill members and all stakeholders.

focuses our work to achieve that impact, and we say no to things that do not align.

You before me (Respect)

We treat all people with dignity, kindness, appreciation and respect. We are curious without

judgment, and we actively listen to ensure mutual understanding. We give everyone a caring

and safe place to share their opinions, their talents, and their questions. We build trust through

direct, clear and transparent communication. We are open and humble.

Thriving begins at home (Well-being)

understand that each one of us needs different things at different times to thrive both in and out

of the workplace. We strive to make genuine and continuous investments in one another and

grace.
