When examining a corporation, we all look to the management team and staff that make the organization what it is. As the founders of the company, we need to instill our values and ethics right from the top. That means honesty, accountability and an ethical approach to our business dealings. Our team looks to the management to set the pace for what is to be expected when you become a part of the New Horizon team.
