Vision, Mission and Core Values
Vision defines for us how we want to be perceived by our
customers, stakeholders and the many others visiting or working in
our community.
Vision: To create an exceptional quality of life that engages
citizens, provides commercial and leisure amenities, promotes
business and employment opportunities and unsurpassed value to all
taxpayers.
Mission is designed to communicate the expectation that our
services and programs are here for the sole purpose of serving our
citizens and community in a manner that will improve the quality
of life for all.
Mission: "To create an environment where the dreams can come
true for individuals, families, and businesses."
The Leadership Philosophy explains what do we believe about the
nature of people, motivation, distribution of knowledge, and work.
This philosophy deeply affects the way we choose to manage.
Windsor’s Leadership Philosophy: The Town of Windsor is an
organization made up of diverse individuals who are enthusiastic,
creative, competent and trustworthy, and who strive to do a good
job. We support and practice participatory management built on a
foundation of an open exchange of information, shared
decision-making and personal responsibility.
We are committed to fulfilling our mission through use of best
practices and quality service. The organization nurtures an
environment that encourages risk-taking to foster creativity and
continuous improvement. We communicate and work in collaboration
with the community we serve.
We take great pride in our work. The organization is dedicated
to personal and professional development. We understand and
promote our organizational values of innovation, responsiveness,
passion, integrity and partnership.
We also recognize that how we go about the delivery of services
and programs is important to achieving our vision. We must
therefore, foster an organizational culture that is built on the
following Core Values.
Core Values:
v Integrity
Saying what we mean and consistently doing what we say. It
means honestly matching words and feelings with thoughts and
actions, with no desire other than for the good of the community.
v Responsiveness
Quality as defined by the customer. We exemplify responsiveness
in our willingness to help customers and to provide prompt service
in a dependable and accurate manner.
v Innovation
The process of effectively and profitably taking new ideas to
satisfied customer. It is a process of continual renewal involving
the whole organization and is an essential part of everyday
practice.
v Passion
The excitement of doing something – vocation or avocation, art
or mission, idea or ideal that we find fulfilling and deeply
satisfying. People with passion ignite enthusiasm, inspire
excellence and invoke enhanced performance.
v Partnership
There are more leaders, because people can take turns assuming
leadership for tasks where they have knowledge and ability.
Leaders inspire and facilitate rather than just give orders that
have to be obeyed. Our partnerships also extend to the community
where accountability also flows in two directions.
