Our values show up in the work we do

For every Northstar colleague, in every role and location.

This fictional gallery example uses invented stories and situations to show how values can look in everyday work. Explore a value, recognize a colleague in the Recognitions app, or prepare a story of your own.

Customers First

  • Make the next step clear.
Safety Always
  • Pause when a task or condition seems unsafe.
  • Raise a concern through the applicable local process.
Own It
  • Follow through on the next step you own.
  • Tell the right people when plans change.
Better Together
  • Share context another team can use.

Recognize a colleague

When you notice a specific action that reflects a value, tell the colleague what they did and why it mattered.

  • Open the Recognitions app in MangoApps to send peer recognition. Its access route depends on your company’s MangoApps setup.

No app link or recognition workflow is assumed by this sample site.
