Our values
VINCI Energies is founded on five values: trust, empowerment, entrepreneurial spirit, responsibility and solidarity. Its lifeblood is the human values that are fully embodied by everyone in its business units. These values foster VINCI Energies’ service culture and management model:
Our organisational model based on management empowerment is a key part of our identity. It depends, in turn, on the ability of our employees to put our corporate culture into practice and to take our values – trust, entrepreneurial spirit, solidarity, empowerment and responsibility – on board.
Trust
Trust is at the heart of our working relationship and is deeply nurtured by proximity, enabling everyone to demonstrate their talent. Trust is given, earned, and rewarded so that everyone can work together. Trust is based on transparency and does not exclude control.
Entrepreneurial mindset
We empower and acknowledge everybody’s ability to take initiatives, weigh up risks and seize chances, envision and achieve success. We value the ability to make decisions and to deliver. Being able to say “no”, being careful and selective is also part of the entrepreneurial mindset. We acknowledge the right to make mistakes.
Solidarity
We demonstrate solidarity within VINCI Energies by working as part of a network to share knowledge, activities, and resources for greater innovation and better performance and responsiveness. We work as a network, and we value people who are willing to give and share. Employees and business units also show solidarity by getting involved in civil society and local communities. Our solidarity is shown in good and bad times.
Autonomy
Autonomy is granted to our business units with the ability for people to make their own decisions, within a defined framework. Autonomy embraces the concept that each situation is specific, and we believe in human intelligence. We also aim at empowering each and every employee to develop their talents and potential. Autonomy is not independence; it also encompasses communication and transparency.
Responsibility
We empower and give responsibility to everyone, no matter their level within the organisation. We are convinced of the ability of our employees to work responsibly and to assume this responsibility. It is key to our success.
