People are the key success factor in Vopak’s growth strategy. Vopak’s rapid growth requires us to pay more attention to communicating the company’s core values, the Vopak Values. A lot of time and energy has been invested in making employees aware of the importance of these values. The values of Integrity, Professionalism, Improvement, Ownership, Service, Passion and Agility are the basis for any decision and ensure a constant level of quality in our services. Various initiatives were developed in 2007, including an educational game, Vopak Volare, which centres on these standards and poses dilemmas to the players that link in with Vopak’s strategy and core values.
