The ADEQ Way

The ADEQ Way
Following are ADEQ's 10 organizational habits, known as the "ADEQ Way," that help leadership and staff fulfill our important mission.
- Evaluate everything we do for its impact on the mission.
- Hire only those who believe in our way and have a passion for their work.
- Train those who cannot, replace those who will not, and promote those who excel.
- Never hide a problem — respect others enough to be honest, even if the truth is uncomfortable.
- Do not blame, but hold each other accountable.
- Involve end users early and often when creating or improving services.
- Never stop asking why.
- Continuously design and redesign for quality and radical simplicity.
- Freely discuss, promptly decide, and totally commit.
- Do not fear failure.
