At Rea, we come to work every day with three simple goals: earning the trust of our customers, communicating openly with our co-workers, suppliers, and partners, and working together as a team to solve any problem that comes our way. We distill these goals down to a single motto, one you’ll hear frequently when you visit any of Rea’s six offices or manufacturing facilities: Trust. Transparency. Teamwork.
Trust is the foundation of healthy relationships. Transparency reduces the risk of misunderstanding, and it helps to encourage trust in other’s actions and motives. Teamwork is working together to achieve our goals, as well as offering to help a co-worker finish a task and serving our communities. Rea’s corporate personality is defined by our culture. Applying the 3Ts into our daily lives will define who we are while we pursue the purpose established by our tagline: WE POWER THE WORLD.
“Living above the line”
Life is full of challenges at work and at home. The Rea culture is all about how we react to these challenges. When we handle challenges through the 3Ts – Trust, Transparency, and Teamwork – we are “living above the line.” Below the line behavior includes the BCDs – Blaming, Complaining, and Defending. Living below the line never solves a problem, never achieves a goal, and never builds a relationship. As a company, we strive to keep every interaction and every transaction above the line.
