THE PACKER FREIGHT
Swagger
The Packer Freight Swagger is who we are and who we aspire to be. The following fundamentals are part manifesto, part handbook. They are a set of shared beliefs, values, and practices that define us, and defines our Swagger
BE GRITTY
Recognize the challenge and do something about it. We are doers and achievers. Be ambitious, be fast, work smart, and GSD.
MAINTAIN A POSITIVE MINDSET
Be passionate and positive. You have the power to choose your attitude and your perspective. Remember, the world has bigger problems than delayed shipments. Fuel up on fun and win the day.
DELIVER SOLUTIONS
Do not be governed by what-ifs. Every obstacle offers opportunity. Focus on possibilities, don't be complacent, and keep your foot on the gas.
FAIL FAST AND LEARN
There is no failure, only feedback. This is how we grow. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, learn from it, and become your best.
ACT WITH INTEGRITY
Act in the best interest of our customers, our organization, and our coworkers. Do the right thing at all times, in all circumstances, whether or not anyone is watching.
PRACTICE GENEROSITY
Take the time and opportunity to make a difference. Use your talents and successes to enrich others' futures. Instead of asking "what can I get?" ask "what can I give?"
CHALLENGE & CHANGE
We are a company of continual improvement. Challenge the norm, "the way it's always been done." Be a life-long learner.
THINK LIKE A CUSTOMER & ACT LIKE AN OWNER
Identify how you can improve your customers' efficiencies and create win-win scenarios. Be a walking, talking Packer brand ambassador.
BECOME THE EXPERT
Our competence confirms we are logistics experts. Approach every task with energy, purpose, critical thinking, detail, follow-up, and enthusiasm. Take the responsibility, do the research, and be the expert.
WE ARE A BUSINESS FAMILY
We are not processes or numbers to be managed. We are a family, where everybody matters and bleeds Packer green.
EMBRACE OPPORTUNITY
We encourage and make it possible for everyone to be at their best, both physically and mentally. Make "Safety" a habit.
CREATE LEADERS
We build each other by creating an environment that develops our gifts. Listen with empathy, build relationships, and focus on shaping values and beliefs.
MAKE QUALITY PERSONAL
Quality is not an act, it is a habit. Take pride in everything you touch and everything you do. Ask yourself, "Is this my best work?"
DELIVER RESULTS
Identify what you're passionate about, what drives you, what you're the best at, and align yourself with the biggest opportunity. Set high goals, leverage your strengths, and hold yourself accountable.
