Indigenous values at work
Aaniin News River readers! This week is exciting because we get to share news published about us! Animikii is featured this week in an article by Canadian Press for the Globe and Mail highlighting how we integrate our values into our everyday work!
The article focuses on the importance of our company values (based on the Anishinaabe Seven Grandfather Teachings) and how they’re reflected in our policies, practices, and long-term goals. “Some people call it decolonizing. Others may call it centring Indigenous wisdom and values,” CEO Jeff Ward told the Canadian Press. “We know that if we focus on those teachings ... that's our best bet to have a successful outcome or a positive impact over those generations.” To learn more about what this looks like in practice, read the article at the link below!
