Our Values
At Summertown we have a high regard of the culture and values of the country we operate in. We push out the boundaries in design delivery and development through our innovation and we expect innovation from our partners. Summertown has respect for the environment and are leaders in sustainable development. We believe in open communication and transparent partnerships with government authorities, investors, service providers, employees, suppliers, and clients.
We treat people with respect and encourage teamwork, continuously looking for improvements both as individuals and as a company. We offer continuous in-house and external training to our staff members for both their personal benefit and professional growth and have strict HR policies for a diverse multicultural environment.
The constant open communication between management and staff is reflected in our 2009 annual employee satisfaction survey, with 79% of employees having confidence that Summertown's management takes the right steps in being open and dedicated to their employees; especially during the recent turbulent worldwide economic crisis.
Taking the above into consideration we must and want LEED to play a major role in our overall business and be in a position to assist those companies that decide on going green in the realization of their green interiors or try to convince other companies of the importance of having energy and environmentally friendly interiors.
