Values
Lindström’s operation is guided by its values.

Lindström aims at long-term development of operations as well as the creation of long-term partnerships. The decision-making is not guided by growth alone – the objective is to make sustainable solutions that ensure profitable growth.

The impact of the values also shows in business expansion decisions. Business operations are not launched in a country until personnel and partners meet the company values and ethical instructions.

The values and their manifestation in daily work are regularly analysed: they are part of the annual performance appraisal discussions.

Profitable growth

Lindström’s operations are cost-conscious and cost-efficient – this guarantees profitable growth. Different projects are prioritised by management according to the overall benefit to the company. Every project must support our vision. Decisions are made on a long-term basis, and resources are allocated for supporting growth.

Responsibility

Lindström takes into account the financial, social and environmental influences of its operations. We operate fairly, observe laws and regulations, and respect local cultures. As an employer, Lindström is fair and responsible. We require that our suppliers and partners adhere to the same principles.

Long-term customer relationships

Genuine partnership requires mutual confidence, continuous development of operations and mutual benefit in business. Lindström listens to its customers, anticipates the customer’s needs and offers competitive services. We react immediately to customer demands.

Enthusiasm and joy of learning

Good leadership and management, encouraging feedback, and trainings ensure continuous development of Lindström and its personnel. Open, interactive communication generates a good atmosphere for innovations and promotes successful implementation.
