The Practice of Leading at Tao
We are altruistic
We are generous with our time prioritizing to teach, coach and develop our managers and leaders. We know when to step aside, and identify, nurture and place successors and leaders of the future; create opportunities for growth and empower and entrust important and significant roles to our key talents. We make sacrifices and strive to give what costs, and not what we can spare.
We practice Gratitude
We reward victories and great performance, thank and accept leadership challenges in any form.
We are Humble
We acknowledge and admit limitations, perpetually sharpen ourselves and our talents, admit mistakes and be accountable for any of the consequences, and treat everyone with respect regardless of rank.
We lead with Courage
We face challenges and problems squarely, and immediately. We are decisive and methodical, obssesive with execution and act based on high standards of values.
Integrity is the cornerstone of how we lead
We keep and honor our promises all the time - no matter how small. We do not take undue advantage of our suppliers and business partners to enrich ourselves. We expect to be measured against the same high standards we measure others. We consistenly behave with all TAO Values in and out of work.
Our DNA is Entrepreneurship
We lead business to win, make profit, grow and expand for the great majority of society, never for our own benefit. We design policy and business models that adopt this practice, nurture and pass on entrepreneurial spirit and capability to the next batch of leaders.
