In my experience, the values that are important at our organization are integrity, accountability, and compassion. We believe in upholding the highest ethical standards, taking responsibility for our actions, and showing empathy towards those we serve.
To ensure that we are living up to these values, we have regular team meetings where we discuss and reflect on our actions and decisions. We also have a performance evaluation system that includes feedback from our colleagues and beneficiaries, which helps us identify areas for improvement.
Moreover, we have a strong leadership team that sets a positive example and holds everyone accountable for their actions. This has created a culture of trust, transparency, and continuous learning within our organization.
Personally, my experience at the ICRC has taught me the importance of having a strong organizational culture. It not only helps us stay true to our values but also enables us to work effectively as a team and deliver the best possible outcomes for those we serve.
