# Boyd Metals Unveils Guiding Principles

![Boyd Metals](https://blog.boydmetals.com/hubfs/blogs/20181214-core-values-promo/20181219-unveils-guiding-principles.png)

The senior management team at Boyd Metals recently embarked upon a journey to determine and document exactly what we as a company stand for. Out of this, we developed a set of core values to serve as the guiding principles for the men and women of Boyd Metals. 

In determining our core values, we felt they must reflect how we as a company actually act and behave - not just how we *want* to act and behave. A core value is only true if it has an active influence and if the people or company live by it.

#### The Boyd Metals Core Values

**Relationships  
![boyd-relationships](https://blog.boydmetals.com/hs-fs/hubfs/blogs/boyd-relationships.gif?width=200&height=200&name=boyd-relationships.gif)**

Provide the resources and tools to create opportunities for our employees to work in a safe environment and to succeed, grow and advance professionally and personally.

**Continuous Improvement

To never be satisfied, to persevere and to continually seek to improve the quality of our products, services, and processes. 

**Trust  
![boyd-trust_boyd_trust_gif__200_200_](https://blog.boydmetals.com/hs-fs/hubfs/blogs/boyd-trust_boyd_trust_gif__200_200_.gif?width=200&height=200&name=boyd-trust_boyd_trust_gif__200_200_.gif)**  
To prove ourselves reliable and earn the confidence and trust of others through our actions in our personal and professional lives

While we at Boyd Metals have always strived to live out our business lives in these ways, before now, it has never been documented.

Going forward, we will not only endeavor to live out these core values, but will be talking about them in meetings, displaying them in our facilities, implementing them in our employee orientations and working to ensure they define our culture. 

Most importantly, we hope that you, our customer, sees these core values reflected in our work. From the first phone call to the moment the product is delivered, we strive to show you why we believe these are the values that define our company.
