Core Values and Basics
Ask anyone who has worked with Datatel about what makes our company different and you consistently you will hear the answer – Our People. Datatel employs people who share the same strong values on which the company was founded. Datatel employees operate in a positive and effective work environment.
Our employees are the ones who took the initiative to develop and document Datatel’s Core Values and Basics, proudly stating Datatel’s Purpose and Perspectives. To keep the culture with everyone, we have put it on a pocket-sized card so it is easy to keep on hand and access. Ask an employee to see his or her Core Values and Basics Card – everyone always keeps one close by.
