3 Selfs


These characters represent each of the 3 Selfs and are used internally at Canon to help remind employees of their responsiblities.

Self Motivation - Take the initiative and be proactive in everything we do.

  • They might accept new challenges by showing enthusiasm for new projects or processes or satisfying discerning customers.
  • Show a positive attitude by sharing enthusiasm with colleagues and customers.
  • Smile and generally behave in a helpful and approachable manner.
  • Always look for solutions by contributing ideas and suggestions at meetings and with
    customers.
  • Use and believe in their strengths and talents. This might include situations where they have
    shared their knowledge and expertise with colleagues and customers.
  • Show commitment to their team and to Canon by contributing positively to activities.

Self Management - Conduct ourselves responsibly and be accountable for all of our actions.

  • Manages their time effectively and proactively. Is on time, keeps appointments, plans day well,
    plans meetings, organizes agendas, and volunteers to chair a meeting.
  • Behaves in an organized way. Organizes space and documents well, uses checklists and shares
    plans, creates an effective planning system that assists other colleagues.
  • Takes responsibility for reaching targets, sometimes under challenging circumstances.

Self Awareness - Understand the situation we find ourselves in and our role in that situation.

  • Someone who responds well to feedback from colleagues and shows willingness to learn from
    others.
  • Adapts well to different situations and is considerate to other colleagues. Consider how well they
    contribute to a discussion and listen to others? How helpful are they to you and your business
    area?
  • Shows positive or inspiring behaviour in meetings and discussions (in your team and with
    customers): a good listener, does not try to take-over someone else’s meeting or ideas or
    behaves in a polite way.
  • Acknowledges others’ ideas and gives encouragement, building on them as a team effort.
