What are our values?

Our values at Gloucestershire County Council

Our values are at the heart of everything we do and how we treat each other. They were developed by staff through our employee engagement survey and our employee voice groups, as well as feedback from the senior leadership team and members.

These values set out the way we work, define our culture and identify what we, as a whole, care about.

Accountability – we do, what we will say
Integrity – we are honest, fair and speak up
Empowerment – we enable communities and colleagues to be the best they can
Respect – we value and listen to each other
Excellence – we continually improve through listening, learning and evaluation

These values set out the way in which we carry out our work and define our culture, so it is important you take time to consider each of the values and what they mean to you.
