Our Values

The McConnell Dowell Group Values represent beliefs and behaviours that underpin everything we do.

McConnell Dowell Group Values are used to communicate to our people and shape the way we act.

Are values are represented by a suite of custom illustrations. Illustration is the best way to construct unique and unexpected imagery specifically related to our people and what we do.

People remember images more than words, so we created strong visuals that when linked with the represented value they make sense, meaning people are now more likely to recall the value than if it were just words on a page.

Our illustrations also add character to the McConnell Dowell Group brand as well as align and build upon our recent brand refresh.

Our values illustrations are available in a variety of formats for both print and screen.

These guidelines define and demonstrate correct use of the McConnell Dowell Values System.

Our Values

Safety & Care

Above all else. Every day. We take care of ourselves, everyone around us, and the environments we work in.

Honesty & Integrity

Acting fairly and sticking to our promises is how we build trust. We take the high road. We’re respectful, ethical, open, and we do what is right.

Customer Focus

We focus on our customers’ goals, bringing a responsive and considered approach to every project.

Working Together

We collaborate every day. Supporting and including each other. Sharing experience, ideas and expertise. Our diversity makes us a better team.

Performance Excellence

We embrace our skills, apply our passion and commit to best practices. That’s how we create better together.

How do we use Our Values?

Our values shape our company culture and identify, as a whole, what we really care about as a brand. They guide us on how we should behave in the workplace, with customers and when representing the brand.

Making Our Values stick

It’s important our values are communicated on a regular basis and embedded in our behaviours.

To establish a common understanding of our values, include them in screen presentations, printed materials and on posters where we work.
