Core Behaviors
While our mission guides everything we do, our behaviors define who we are. As a community-owned Alaska Native Corporation, we live by our values and follow core behaviors that have guided our corporation – and our people – for generations.
Create meaningful value
We are a forever company that builds enduring relationships with mutual trust and respect. We treat our customers as we do our Elders – they always eat first. We offer fair prices and a best value approach. We choose customers who see us as valued partners.
Empower people
We believe all of our employees are capable of extraordinary things. We treat employees with respect and dignity. We provide employees who are committed to reaching their full potential with the opportunities and resources to grow and overcome challenges. We cultivate leaders at all levels by modeling and encouraging humility, courage and self-reflection.
Do things the right way
We are in it for the long haul and are proud of how we deliver services and win work. We never compromise our integrity, ethics and safety standards. We are respectful, honest and open with each other. We own up to our mistakes and stand by our commitments.
Build community
We honor our community ownership by making decisions for the collective good. We embrace the diversity of the Chugach family and our communities. We are a positive force within our communities and workplaces. We take time to have fun and celebrate our successes.
