Prysmian Values

These values shape how we deliver results, collaborate, make decisions, and take ownership.

Passion drives our commitment to delivery and ownership.

Teamplay fosters open collaboration and mutual support.

Innovation guides decisions and actions

Belonging creates an inclusive and supportive environment for all.

While values provide direction, their true impact comes from being translated into daily actions and consistent outcomes. To embed them into everyday life at Prysmian, we have developed a behavior-based competency model. 

This model ensures that expected behaviors are:

• Clear and consistent across roles, geographies, and business units.
• Directly linked to business performance and execution.
• Developed, assessed, and reinforced over time. 

Each value is translated into specific behaviors and practical examples, tailored to different levels of responsibility:

• Individual contributors show accountability, proactive collaboration, responsible experimentation, and inclusive behavior. For example, they flag risks early, share knowledge, pilot new ideas, and seek diverse input.
• Managers enable teams by clarifying priorities, fostering trust, encouraging innovation, addressing uncertainties (such as by realigning workloads), constructively managing conflicts, supporting new ideas, and responding to mistakes with coaching. Rather than simply solving problems, managers shape the challenges their teams face.
• Executives lead by example through accountability, promoting cross-functional collaboration, fostering innovation, developing people's potential, and embedding belonging in leadership expectations. For example, they acknowledge strategic wins and misses, sponsor cross-regional initiatives, and measure inclusion.
