Emap Values

Accountable

We devolve decision-making responsibility as far as we can down through the organisation
Because everyone plays their part
We link reward, wherever possible, to that responsibility
We make responsible decisions to safeguard our profits and our environment
We invest with care and do not tolerate waste
We treat customers, suppliers and each other responsibly
We will reward and celebrate success but insist on excellence in our products and of ourselves
People who do not share that value will not find lasting reward here

We encourage innovation imagination and creativity
We nurture ideas and recognise idea for how precious it is
We are better at standing things up than knocking things down
We look for opportunity beyond the incremental and give it the time and space it needs
We are not frightened to experiment
We learn from our mistakes but are not deterred by them
We seize opportunity
We run winners
We are fast and decisive once we have the basis for decision

We are a team, respecting the different skill sets any winning team needs
We ask, listen and hear
We research by seeking data and opinion
We recognise our brands will be deployed in different formats by other specialists in the company
We share our customer information
We help our colleagues to achieve
We make one and one make three

We deliver reliable product that enables users to base decisions and conclude transactions safely
We set ourselves the highest standards in our generation of content and delivery of product
We are generators of unique product based on our own intellectual property; we are not repackagers or retellers
We look to add value to our propositions progressively, provided we can do it profitably
We aspire to continuous improvement, subjecting our output to regular critical appraisal
We make mediocrity feel out of place
