The Lacey Way
Our vision is to be trusted professionals in our community and experts in our field who specialize in emergency preparedness, prevention and response.
Our guiding Principles are:
• Teamwork is what sustains us. Nothing is accomplished and no one succeeds in isolation.
• Leadership is a commitment and mindset, not a title or position.
• Our leaders are accessible and accountable, guiding others in a trustworthy and disciplined manner with clearly defined expectations that are predictably consistent and fair.
• Decisions we make must stand up under inevitable scrutiny; could you confidently read about it in the newspaper?
• If there is a policy, follow it.
• If there is not a policy, but a known past or best practice exists, rely on it.
• If there is no policy to follow and you have discretionary time, then seek the guidance of your peers or leaders; THEN take a lead role in developing the needed policy or guide.
• If there is no policy, practice or discretionary time, use your training and experience to make the best decision you can; THEN share your experience so the next person will have guide to follow.
• Life-long learning is what prepares us for our future. Every day MUST BE a Learning Day and should be conducted as if lives depend on its success, because they do.
• Mistakes are inevitable. Without them, we would never learn the wrong way to do something. Just don't waste the experience by hiding or repeating a mistake.
We value:
• Competence - to effectively handle whatever challenge we face
• Character - to preserve our integrity and the public's trust
• Courage - to do what is right, no matter what
• Compassion - for everyone we encounter without prejudice
• Camaraderie - to respect and support every member of our team
