| Vision
Boeing is in the midst of a transformation that will leave no operation untouched.
Our transformation as a company is rooted in our vision. Boeing’s vision
statement consists of just 10 words: “People working
together as a global enterprise for aerospace leadership.” But these
words form the foundation for the way we operate. | | Our
vision begins with “people.” We regard
teamwork — “people working together”
— as a fundamental part of who we are and how we function. Even with 186,900
employees, we are one team, one company. Diverse and highly motivated people who
continue to learn and face new challenges are our best resource in taking this
company forward. That is why we invest so much in the intellectual growth and
development of our people. | | Our Office of Technology
is an important part of this development. Through its different units — Boeing
Phantom Works, Boeing Ventures, Intellectual Property Business and University
Relations — our World Headquarters Technology Office is responsible for creating
an environment that attracts, grows, maintains and leverages one of our greatest
assets: the intellectual capital of the enterprise. | | In
2001, nearly 30,000 people — more than 15% of our employees — capitalized
on our Learning Together Program, which picks up the full cost of tuition for
any Boeing employee who wishes to pursue further education or advanced degrees
at the university level. More than 6,000 people experienced the Boeing Leadership
Center, where we integrate business and leadership curricula with the goal of
developing great business leaders. The Center helps people learn how to lead teams
and achieve outstanding results in today’s dynamic global economy. In large
part because of the success of the Learning Together Program and the Leadership
Center, Training Magazine recently recognized Boeing as one of the top
15 companies worldwide for excellence in our training, learning and development
programs for employees, and for the impact of those programs on our business. |
