Customer Focus
	It is imperative for us, both individually and as a team, to far exceed the expectations of our customers. There must be a seamless quality in our interests and concerns for each individual customer and their business enterprise. Hence, we seek to maximize the value added to our customers' enterprise as if it was our own. We champion internal and external customers alike. The quality work done for the internal customer is an important link in the chain that provides the external customer with the product and service they expect.
Responsibility of Ownership
	As employee/owners, we respect the integrity, intensity, dedication and competence of every individual in our company and believe this respect for one another will permit both the individual and company to naturally flourish. We enhance individual performance through mentoring, training, and the provision of opportunities for self-development. Above all, we recognize that it is the sum of outstanding individual talents, carefully nurtured by and within the team, that drives the ultimate success of the whole.

Working Environment
	We strive for a team environment, which promotes the enjoyment of one's job and the satisfaction of doing that job well. We believe it is important that we come to our work each day with renewed enthusiasm and a feeling that today we will change something, no matter how small, for the better. We believe in dealing with one another in an atmosphere of trust, respect, and honesty. We feel the commitment to the Tunnell Team is as important as our commitment to our client. We support an environment in which a positive attitude flourishes and through which we, as a team, find new, creative and innovative ways to add value to our clients' operations. We promote an environment of active listening and communication among ourselves. We recognize that the team is made up of individuals, each different in their approach toward their professional life versus their private life. Each day we attempt to build upon an interpersonally non-competitive environment that supports and encourages individual excellence and team cooperation.
Management & Leadership
	The survival of our company as an economic entity is vital to achieving the vision, mission, and beliefs we have set forth in this document. As such, there is a great deal of trust placed in the management team, which leads us to provide an environment for continuous improvement. In order to create this environment, the management team must not only perform its typical management duties, it must also actively lead and espouse the beliefs outlined in this statement. The management team must also recognize the employees' need for positive reinforcement. Leadership is not limited to guiding our company. As project principals, project managers, and team leaders, many of us, at various times, assume different leadership roles. We expect those individuals who assume these roles will affirm the values and beliefs set forth here and work at their assignments with the same vision, foresight, and leadership practiced within the company.
Professional & Public Responsibility
	We will maintain the highest standards of ethical conduct in dealing with all of our customers. We will do nothing to detract from the hard-earned reputation of our company. We will strive as a company and individually to improve the quality of life in the community in which we live and work.
Pursuit of Excellence
	In ascribing to these values and beliefs we, the members of the Tunnell Consulting, pledge to pursue the pathways to excellence each and every day. We believe it is vital to our ongoing growth that positive and continuous improvement be our goal each day. We know that even small daily changes in our attitudes and the way we deal with our clients and fellow employee/owners will create the environment conducive to growth.
