Corporate Principles

The Corporate principles are the criteria that ESI people should apply to all actions. Our activities should always follow these principles:

Market-orientation;: by developing new methods, techniques and tools, ESI tries to satisfy the requirements and needs of the companies in our market.
Cooperation;: cooperation based on confidence and on the exchange of knowledge must be one of ESI's main lines of action.
Internationalization;: ESI has always had an international vocation and spirit that must not only be maintained but also strengthened through agreements, alliances and all of ESI actions and activities.
Effective Management;: ESI must continue to pursue the development of an effective management of its resources with the aim of being an efficient organisation on a daily basis.
Innovation;: Innovate means being first. This is the main principle of ESI activity as an organisation and as individuals in each of their areas of responsibility.
Human and Professional Quality;: There are two foundations on which ESI's development is based: the People and their Knowledge. For this reason, ESI is a centre that generates knowledge and development of both individuals and work teams.
