Who we are

 

At the PACEM family of companies, our vision—rooted in a deep understanding of our business, the market environment, and competitive trends—is “to be teachers of righteousness and students of its implementation.”

You may have heard this quote attributed to Albert Einstein: “If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.” We thought of this when we began to write this vision statement.

What we mean by “to be teachers of righteousness and students of its implementation” is that we should always strive to transform ourselves - PACEM executives, employees, customers, and partners - into a better humankind, and to acknowledge the vital role of our service in a life-threatening setting, always hoping for, and always striving for a better and safer environment.

Our leadership vision builds upon the “PACEM Family Values” approved by PACEM co-founder Cory Mills on October 29, 2018, of earned mutual trust, honesty, faithfulness, patriotism, honor, selfless servant leadership, subsidiarity, humility and humor.

As refugees of war and as family members of combat veterans, our leadership vision reflects our deeply-rooted commitment to these shared values, and to the importance of righteousness in our shared life journey. The first five of our PACEM Family Values, “earned mutual trust, honesty, faithfulness, patriotism, honor,” defined for us the models of righteousness that each of us in the PACEM Family should always strive to be.

Our own experiences in surviving war taught us the importance of always being students of the implementation of righteousness. By this we mean that we can always learn from the example of others how righteousness in the end is more important than simply making money and survival, as important as those two goals are to each member of the PACEM Family.

As we announced in promulgating our Pacem Family Values in 2018, our employees and their families are First Things; security and safety are paramount. Manufacturing efficiency and profits are very important Second Things. If we only focus on these very important Second Things, in the end we will not achieve them, and in the process we will lose our First Things. We will succeed in business by focusing on both.

Our leadership vision is “to be teachers of righteousness and students of its implementation.”
