OUR VALUES
At AVLancer, our four core values are known by the acronym RIBS—Responsibility, Integrity, Balance, Stewardship. And just as the ribs in our bodies hold up our bodily frame, so our values hold up the moral and ethical center of our organization.
- Responsibility is the ability to act, make decisions, and be accountable for results both positive and negative. We believe this is the crux of good business and citizenship.
- Defined as "the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness"; integrity ultimately means doing the right thing, even when it is hard, and it stands at the foundation of our core values.
- AVLancer strives to offer the best balance between work-life and home-life as possible. We are determined believers in working to live rather than living to work.
- We are committed to good stewardship of our team members, partners, customers, investors, suppliers, communities, and the environment. Our goal is to caringly serve all in our sphere of influence.
