Our core values are deeply-held beliefs and the fundamental driving forces of our business. They are the heart of everything we stand for. Our core values are our guiding principles because they form a solid core of who we are, what we believe, and who we want to be going forward.

​

Go the Extra Mile

We always go the extra mile for customers, co-workers, and the company. We strive to always over-deliver and exceed people’s expectations at everything we do, and we do so with enthusiasm. We understand that going the extra mile for people is what results in word of mouth, which is the driving force behind real growth. We strive to WOW people with our outstanding customer service. It’s not just something we say, it’s something we do, and our daily actions reflect this.

 

Teamwork

 

We share goals and hold ourselves and each other accountable. We take ownership of the team’s work and personally commit to finding solutions. We communicate effectively by sharing information, skills, and knowledge to achieve success. We support the growth and development of all members of the team. We share and celebrate success by valuing and recognizing each contribution. Teamwork makes the dream work.

 

Be Disciplined

We are self-motivated to stay on-task and get the job done. We are driven and focused on the company and its progress, from the big picture all the way down to the finite details of every task we take on. We are strong enough to hold ourselves accountable, and we can be relied on to consistently get the job done above the expectation set for us.

​

Take Initiative

We do not wait to be told to do something. When we see something that needs to be done, we do it. We always take initiative to get tasks done without being asked. We are self-driven and look to constantly push ourselves forward and do what needs to be done to succeed. We don’t sit and wait for someone to tell us the next step to take; we anticipate the path and contribute accordingly without needing to be carried. We don’t need someone else to hold a carrot in front of us. We find our own carrots and hold them for ourselves, knowing that improving the company any way we can benefits all.

​

Safety

​

We take responsibility for our own safety and for those around us. We recognize and correct potential hazards. We follow protocols and procedures. We speak up and stop work if safety is compromised.

 

Loyalty

​

We are dedicated to building and maintaining loyal relationships with our customers and co-workers. ​Ultimately, we aren't just building a company, we're building a family. We'll always be loyal to one another and our customers.

​

Quality

 

We will achieve a high level of quality through discipline for our processes coupled with a commitment to continuous improvement. We will deliver the highest level of quality service to our clients. We are committed to excellence in everything we do.

 

Pride

 

Many people say pride is bad. Take pride in what you do, but don’t let it go to your head. Pride is a feeling of self-worth which finds its source in satisfaction from past accomplishments, motivation for present endeavors, and inspiration springing from future aspirations. We're proud of our accomplishments, but we remain humble.

 

Accountability

 

We Are All Accountable! We take personal accountability for our actions and results. We focus on finding solutions and achieving results. We actively engage in discussions and commit to decisions once they are made. We involve others in decisions and plans that affect them. We keep promises and commitments made to others. We personally commit to the success and well-being of ourselves and our teammates. We embrace the belief that all injuries are preventable and that achieving a healthy and safe environment starts with “me”.

​

Leadership

 

We believe leadership sets the tone for how we do business. Leaders strive to be trustworthy, honest, and sincere. Leaders are willing to serve others and sacrifice their own interests. Leaders create vision and inspire others and advance the priorities and mission of the organization. Leaders have courage to rise above challenges to work through adversity. Leaders set the pace, establishing standards for others to follow. Leaders provide guidance and direction.

​

Continuous Improvement

​

We are always learning and striving to better the company and ourselves. We believe in taking the time to learn things on our own to better ourselves personally and improve our performance. We know that learning is essential to growing and that our personal growth and performance have a direct impact on the company’s growth and performance. We work to get better every day and constantly push ourselves for personal progress and make it a point to never be the weak link on the team.

 

Be Selfless

We always give more than we take. We always put others and the company before individual accolades. We always do the right thing and make our decisions based on what is the morally right thing to do. We don’t seek out personal gain from what we do and the decisions we make, instead we make decisions based on what’s best for others and what’s best for the company. We believe that ultimately what is best for the company is best for us anyway.

​

Be Enthusiastic

We are enthusiastic about being a part of the the team. Our enthusiasm and passion for what we do here carry through to all levels of our performance in everything that we do, both at work and in our dealings with others outside of work. We understand that being enthusiastic is contagious, and if we are enthusiastic and excited to help our customers, co-workers, and the company, they will reciprocate that excitement about us. Working at McBrayer Landscapes isn’t a job, it’s a lifestyle, and we are loyal and dedicated to our cause and live our lives enthusiastically by the values that McBrayer Landscapes stands for.

​

Be Profitable

 

We understand that long-term economic success is what helps us provide employees and customers with the best productivity tools, solutions, and services. While important, profitability is not why we exist. We exist to provide great services and solve client problems. Each employee contributes directly to our profitability. Profitability is essential to our future success.

​

We Believe

We believe in the big picture, the direction we are all collectively going, and exactly what needs to be done to get there. We believe in everything that McBrayer Landscapes stands for, including these core values, and live by them both inside and outside of work.  It’s who we are fundamentally at our core. And we believe in that.
