Values

Teamwork

Everyone working together toward a common goal; teamwork means putting the organization’s goals above personal goals so that together we all win. Recognizing when to help others and knowing when to ask for help are critical building blocks of teamwork. By embracing roles that allow us to contribute our best and highest value to Kalsee, we move closer to achieving our vision.

Integrity

It’s not enough to do things right, we must do the right things. Integrity means being honest in our relationships with each other and serving as a living example by living the morals and principals we hold true. By acting with integrity we build trust among our staff as well as with our members. Trust is essential in fostering a positive work environment and creating a climate for continued success.

Passion

Desire to be the best is what compels greatness. Passion is the unbridled enthusiasm that allows us to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles to get the hard things done. Through our personal sacrifice, determination and persistence, we signal our dedication to each other and our members. Passion is the behavioral embodiment of a winning culture.

Positive Work Environment

Treating our members and employees with dignity and respect is critical for a positive work environment. A healthy workplace is a reflection of both our morals and professional standards and allows us to create an environment that nurtures trust through open-communication and teamwork. A positive work environment allows each team member to perform at the highest level.

Accountability

Taking ownership and accepting responsibility are vital characteristics of a valued team member. Being accountable means solving problems and avoiding crisis at the lowest possible level, regardless of the situation. When each team member makes accountability a personal priority, we demonstrate our professionalism and ownership necessary for achieving remarkable results. Personal accountability allows Kalsee to function more efficiently.

Independent Thought

Creativity and discovery lay the foundation for personal and organizational growth. We respect the opinions and input of others, recognizing that a true learning organization allows each voice to be heard. By cultivating an environment that rewards risk and empowers people, we establish a mutual bond of trust that fuels intellectual curiosity and an entrepreneurial spirit.

Excellence

The roots of complacency are found in self-satisfaction. Striving for excellence means never being comfortable with the status-quo and recognizing that achievement is not an end-state. Accomplishments in and of themselves are fleeting, but the path to excellence is never ending. There’s always a better way to do it, find it.
