Everyone who works at takealot.com subscribes to the following values:FASTThe success of any business today depends on quick decisions and decisive implementation. Big does not beat small but fast definitely beats slow. SIMPLIFYMake it easier for customers, refine your ideas, refine them again and when you think you have arrived, refine yet again. INDIVIDUALISEEach and every customer needs to be treated as an individual, it is not about averages, it's about the individual. Obsess about the customer. SMARTSystems are important, resources are important, but the best people are the most important asset to any business. This does not mean that the company panders to individual whims and fancies, this means that the company will only employ the most dedicated, smart, results-orientated, team players around. FUNYou have to love what you are doing; if you don't then you should reconsider working here. ITERATE & INNOVATEInnovation is not about ground-sweeping changes but about consistent, everyday, iterative improvement. This applies to every work stream in the business. DO ITIf you see a problem, find the solution, it's your responsibility not someone else's. Be accountable. WISESpend only where it needs to be spent and spend wisely.
