Our Culture of Care
As part of the Barry-Wehmiller organization, we’re proud that the solutions we provide help bring many of life’s daily necessities to people across the globe.
But that’s just what we do.
What truly defines us as a business is how we do it, and that’s by fostering a caring, trusting, nurturing organizational culture through which people feel safe to express their ideas and share their gifts and talents.
We’re showing what’s possible at the intersection of great business strategy and profound care for people.
We understand that most fundamental of human needs: to know that who we are and what we do matter. Through our business, we have the unique opportunity to let our team members know that they do. And when they feel valued and cared for at work, they return home and enjoy better relationships with their loved ones, friends, neighbors and others.
Our message of creating a better world through business – or what we call Truly Human Leadership – has been the subject of a best-selling book, a documentary, many media outlets and is regularly shared through our multi-media blog. Additionally, many companies and organizations seek us out to share our insights at conferences or for our leadership and culture training and consulting services.
We’re proud to serve our customers, communities and all our stakeholders in that same spirit. The 12,000+ team members throughout all Barry-Wehmiller companies are united around the world by our values statement, the Guiding Principles of Leadership, which shares our unique measure of success: by the way we touch the lives of others.
Building a Better World
Across the globe, machines built and technology innovated by the people throughout our companies, like BW Flexible Systems, play an enormous role in helping our customers provide essential goods to the world. Corrugated boxes that bring packages to businesses and homes. Bottles, cans, cartons, bags and other containers of food and household goods on store and kitchen shelves. Toilet tissue, wet wipes and hygiene products.
Barry-Wehmiller businesses are also involved in infrastructure equipment, medical equipment and supplies, insurance services and leadership training. But no matter the industry, any time a Barry-Wehmiller company partners with a customer, they quickly become part of the extended BW family and our culture of care.
