Our Culture

We believe culture is the foundation of business success. A company culture is the combination of vision statements and values, combined with the harder-to-see norms; behaviours, languages, beliefs, and systems, often referred to as the company’s unwritten rules.

Culture is what the business stands for and what makes us different. When you ‘connect the dots’ with Leadership and Culture of an organisation you can seriously transform any business and make a real difference and that’s what our aspirations are at Pathway Group.

So, what elements define the Pathway company culture?

Purpose

We start with intent or purpose – we have said this in few sentences which is Changing Lives Through Skills and Work.
And to...
Enhancing knowledge, developing skills and changing behaviours to transform communities

Values

What are our company values and what do they say about the way you want people to work? When we codify our values, this allows potential team members to see at-a-glance exactly what’s important to us. We think about how we work with customers, how we work with each other, and how we seek to improve. The key also is also ensuring that the values, are still relevant and are they being lived every day?

Our Values

Environment

Pre- Covid we use to say and we believe it still applies that team members spend more time at work with colleagues than they do anywhere else. Creating the right environment can make people happier and work more effectively. So, we think about our workspaces and ask ourselves some crucial questions to ensure we make this right for all.

Our Values

Working Structure

Remote working and flexible hours are attractive to people when looking for a new job. Allowing and encouraging our team members to work where and when they perform best creates a culture of trust and openness.

Our Values

Management & Communication

We continuously think about our management setup in the business. Are business decisions made behind closed doors or do you involve your team in these decisions? Defining this, and how you communicate will determine much of your company culture.

Our Values

Celebrating Success

What’s our reaction when someone does a good job? To foster a culture of positivity and motivation, it’s really important to recognise and celebrate successes. It may be a simple ‘well done’ or a bigger gesture, such as a bonus. We think about ways we continuously make celebrating success a part of our culture, we have awards scheme which recognises team members’ achievements.

Our Values

Developing Skills

People are rarely content to stay in the same role with no room for growth. Developing people not only improves their skills but adds value to our business. Defining exactly how we plan to develop our team members fosters an environment where they feel valued and increases retention rates.

Our Values

Team Relationships

Of course, we want people to work hard, however a team that enjoys each other’s company will work more effectively and harmoniously than a team opposed to each other. We give thought to how we’re going to foster these relationships. We encourage our teams to have regular team socials outside of work and have team away days

Our Values

We believe…

If we keep your values at the forefront of everything you and your team do, our culture shouldn’t shift.
That people now look for more than just a job; they want purpose in their work and have a desire to make a difference, and progress and grow.
The right culture is critical to our business success.
We are proud to give people the opportunity to talk, to contribute, and to grow!
