Culture is a combination of intentional design and conditioned behavior that takes root over time. If you want to rely on everyone working on the same page together, you need a solid framework for building the culture you want and keeping it that way.
We prioritize the safety of others above all else
We deliver on our commitments, and do what we say we’ll do
We say what has to be said in a tactful, courteous way
We are dedicated, hard-working people who provide exceptional service to our customers and each other
We are dedicated to continuous improvement, driving superior quality and productivity
We never fail, we only learn
We achieve more together by collaboration and consensus
We are experts at what we do, but we never assume we know everything
Lanter® has an enviable record of growth over our 40-year history, and our vision and goals for the future are even more ambitious. We will get there by continuing to deliver on our commitments, doing what we say we will do with integrity, and maintaining our reputation as the preeminent transportation and logistics provider in the important business sectors we serve.
We are guided by the values expressed in our Non-Negotiables and a defined set of behaviors that bring those values to life. While the words in our values are important, it’s the actions behind them that truly shape our culture. At Lanter®️, we are one team, achieving more together through collaboration, inclusivity, and input from everyone. We work together to accomplish our goals with shared purpose and enthusiasm.
Our goal is to create a high-performance culture of trust where team members can grow, thrive, and be their best selves. We encourage fearlessness, viewing setbacks as opportunities to learn rather than failures. Accountability at Lanter is not a tool for punishment but a ladder for growth, helping people reach their potential and deliver on their promises. We are deeply committed to leadership development as a cornerstone of our success.
Vision and values can lapse into empty words without clearly defined processes, rituals, and routines that make them real and reliable in day-to-day operations. We stay true to that principle by avoiding the trap of tempting diversions and quick fixes that come and go with little impact and often leave people frustrated.
We also make sure we don’t get stuck in old ways of doing things. That comes from our passion to serve and going the extra mile to provide exceptional service to our customers and to each other. Continuous improvement is a big priority for us, and we are always looking at how to serve and do things better than before.
We’re not a team that draws attention to ourselves, or a workplace where arrogance is accepted
Opportunities for growth and development are plentiful, and they don’t follow a linear path
Teammates have ample leeway to do their own thing and explore an array of career options
Our commitment to the well-being of our team is both professional and personal
The importance of the work we do as a vital cog in our country’s supply chain, supporting countless people nationwide who rely on us to deliver the goods every day.
A devotion to the values in our Non-Negotiables, the heart of our culture that guides the decisions we make and actions we take in serving everyone affiliated with our company inside and out.
