Our Shared Values

Integrity: We say what we will do, and do what we say we will

Excellence: We get the job done, in a way in which both we and our citizens take pride.

Inclusion: We reach out to all of our citizens and employees in making the important decisions that affect all of our lives.

Teamwork: We must all work together to reach our fullest potential.

Two questions were asked of all of Michigan’s executive branch employees, from student assistants to the governor’s cabinet, in every corner of our state: What values do you hold most dearly in your professional and personal lives? And, what values do you see demonstrated in your work place? Their answers to these questions defined the values that are the basis for how we serve our citizens.

Employees selected four core values as their own: Integrity, excellence, inclusion, and teamwork. These values connect state employees as people and as a government in our pursuit of Michigan’s future.

As Michigan moves forward and embraces new opportunities, government’s need to live and work with the direction of these shared values has become increasingly clear. In order to reach this shared vision of Michigan, government must work together, as one.
