The O.C. Tanner
Culture Code
Creating a culture of great work
Primary Children’s HospitalCollege
Meals on WheelsJordan School District
YWCA
At O.C. Tanner, we’re known for
creating meaningful recognition
experiences to inspire and appreciate
great work around the world.
We make a difference people love.
And that’s something we take very
seriously (although we also have a lot
of fun along the way).
Appreciation is part of our DNA.
Our culture code is how we live it.
How we inspire it. And how we
bring our “a” game every day.
THE GAME
So, what’s the
O.C. Tanner difference?
We can think of a
thousand things. But
we’ve identified these
nine principles as a
good place to start.
1. we are dynamic and diverse

2. we help build great careers
your first day
Every employee starts work here with an a.
Our “a” stands for our business, of course,
the art and science of appreciation. But it’s
also a reminder of who you are: an a-player,
a difference maker, someone who will bring
their very best.
your place
on the team
Employees at O.C. Tanner
go through a rigorous hiring
process — individualized by
department — to make sure
they’re a good fit. It works.
Our average employee
tenure is 15.1 years.

mindset of employees
as they grow helps us
fine-tune expectations,
communications, and
training and development.

At milestone anniversaries
employees receive a personalized
Yearbook™ featuring a great
selection of awards to choose

tanner cares
Tanner Cares offers financial
assistance to employees in
times of extreme need. The
money comes from all of us.
For every dollar an employee
contributes to a community
charity during an annual
drive, the company matches
the donation dollar for dollar
into Tanner Cares.
4. we care for each other and
the community
giveability
Obert used to measure
the company’s success
by asking his accountant,
“What’s our giveability?”
We like that measuring
stick, too. That’s why we
earmark at least 10% of
the profits we earn for
philanthropy.

It makes us proud to work for a company that gives:
44,000 complimentary tickets gifted to our
community to attend the Tanner Gift of Music,
a concert series featuring the Utah Symphony,
Mormon Tabernacle Choir and invited guest soloists
like James Taylor.
The Tanner Lectures on Human Values, an endowed
lectureship at Oxford, Cambridge, Princeton,
Harvard, Stanford, Yale and the Universities of Utah,
Michigan, and California, was established by Obert
C. Tanner to “contribute to the intellectual and moral
life of mankind.”
Fountains! More than 40 fountains, given as
community gifts, now beautify the landscapes of
schools, hospitals, parks and universities around the
country.
