Here at NEC, we have 5 Core Values as a company that our President Matt Sluter outlined in his most recent blog. For this blog, I wanted to dive deeper and share the ten ways that we live our core values here at NEC:
- In Our Conversations
- From leadership team meetings, to meetings with clients, to daily conversations with coworkers, we include our 5 core values as part of the language we use every day.

- Communicate, Communicate, Communicate!
