Lingu culture
What kind of values does the Lingu organization have? What do we stand for? What does it takes to succeed as an employee?
The culture at Lingu is brave, forward-thinking and authentic. But it shouldn't just be a culture. It should also be a movement that inspires others, a fleet that people notice, and that many (but not all) want to join.

Core values
- Lingu has four beacons (values) that help us navigate towards our destination. These serve as guidelines that support our vision and strategy by giving us a common direction and guidance in the choices and actions that carried out in the short and long term.
- The lighthouses are an articulation of expectations for managers and for employees. They therefore function as management tools that limit the need for control and administrative management. The lighthouses also influence the organizational culture largely.
