High-Performance Culture Our employees are the most important reason for our success. They are united by their singular commitment to make life easier and better for people around the world. We welcome and depend on a richly diverse employee base. Working with a great team is important to employee engagement, and 3M encourages employees around the globe to share ideas and innovate. Our focus on innovation means each employee is encouraged to try something new. For example, employees may take time during work to explore ideas outside of their day-to-day job, which has historically been formalized as the “15 percent rule.” We hire talent at all levels from all over the world and our broad array of markets, technologies and global locations provides employees with a huge number of opportunities for growth. 3M’s focus on cross-functional, cross-market career growth means employees can continue growing throughout their career. Continuous improvement is imbedded in our culture. Across 3M, employees are enhancing their knowledge and skills in order to meet changing customer needs and realize their full potential. Our employees also are committed to high standards of ethical business conduct. They recognize that good reputations are much more easily lost than won, and they work hard to protect this important asset.
