AmeriVet Behaviors: How We Do What We Do
Why does AmeriVet have behaviors and not values? Because behaviors are values in action!
Moving from concept to execution helps our Team understand how to work toward our mission every single day.
Be Bold
Status quo is a status “no.” While effort is appreciated, we reward and celebrate results. We applaud those who set big, bold goals and achieve them.
No Jerks Allowed
It’s simple. Be the person you would want to work with and respect others. Trust that your teammates are working toward the same goal, even if their approach is different than yours.
True Partnership
Think “we”, not us and them. When we share the same goals, our partners win and we win — and a shared success feels better.
Have Hustle
Forward motion creates change. Look to the future and know that it’s okay to move quickly. Be willing to do what it takes to get the job done… plus a little bit more.
Take it Personally
Be accountable for your actions. Put your brainpower to work and look for the “how” instead of the “can’t.” Show initiative and be resourceful.
Practice Blameless Problem Solving
Find solutions and don’t point fingers. Learn from the past, but don’t dwell on it. Find a path forward and always stay above the line.
