A new
philosophy
for FCC
Speech by Esther Alcocer Koplowitz,
chairman of FCC, before the Board
of Directors Meeting of the
Group held on 13 January 2015.
I am going to try, with a few words, to sum
up the principles and values that I unders-
tand should be those that define the philo-
sophy with which we will tackle the tasks
ahead of us in this new FCC.
To do this, I have carefully checked the
elements which, up to now, have been
essential in the evolution of our company
and which are part of our identity, and I
have also analysed in depth the principles
underscoring the good work of the Carso
Group, with which we coincide in their fun-
damental values:
•
Confidence in our capabilities to build
a better and different future.
•
The passion for the company. We
should not forget that together with the
firm and patient commitment, the pas-
sion that we put in what we do always
gives good results. This is what we
have learned from our mother.
•
In the same way that we learned to
put our feelings in what we do; based
on creativity, a generous spirit, and an
open mind as the key factors for adap-
ting and for constantly seeking what is
new and modern.
•
To be flexible and quick when making
decisions so as to improve our pro-
ductivity and competitiveness.
•
Cohesive teams, working as a group,
collective intelligence and the recog-
nition of equality, diversity, and talent
as the means for the advancement of
everyone.
•
Austerity as a principle and in all cir-
cumstances.
•
The awareness that we are commit-
ted, through our projects, to improve
the well-being of all our fellow citizens.
Principles and values that determine our
day-to-day work and which, I am certain,
will continue to guide our steps in this new
FCC.
