Our visions

We have two visions, which explain what we want to achieve. One is for our customers, the people of Glasgow, and the other is for our employees.

For our customers, we want to:

• 'create a prosperous city for all Glaswegians'.

That means creating a healthy, clean and safe city, with a strong economy, where citizens of all ages and backgrounds can work, learn and thrive.

To make that happen, we need all of our employees to work together and provide the best possible services to every Glaswegian.

For our employees we want to:

• 'inspire them to make the difference every day'

That means creating an environment where they can contribute their ideas, be creative, make decisions and be motivated to take responsibility for providing services to our customers.

Our values

Our visions set out what we want to achieve. Our values help to explain how we will achieve them. Our drive for success is reflected in these values.
