MEMBER IN THE SPOTLIGHT

KCMN Member Displays its Core Values

Take a culture that long ago focused on performance and care for employees, formalize those principles into core values company-wide, and you have the Deluxe Way Shared Values, the award winning company philosophy of Deluxe Financial Services (DFS) in Lenexa. The values are openness, trust, and integrity; innovation; partnering for the common goal; recognition and celebration; respect and dignity for all; and quality.

Targeting principles of Fun, Involvement, Recognition, and Engagement (FIRE), the DFS Kansas City engagement team inspires employees to pursue high standards of behavior. From its orientation program to the shop floor, the principles provide employees with high expectations of how to work as an individual and in teams, how to treat both customers and peers, and how to think like an owner by contributing ideas that improve service to customers. Deluxe goes a step further by encouraging employees to give back to their communities with outreach events such as Habitat for Humanity and partnerships with local schools. Employees who clearly demonstrate these principles are recognized and rewarded.

Deluxe Corporation, the largest check printer in the world, believes that the decisions employees make every day add up to its common success. "Our future is very positive," said Warren Moffatt, industrial engineer at Deluxe's Kansas City facility. "During the past few years, we have focused on creating a lean and cellular environment. The interactive partnering and teaming makes work flow smoothly and efficiently."

Deluxe has earned our recognition and best wishes for continued success for its vision and determination to make a great work environment an important part of their manufacturing process.
