Illinois House Of Representatives Office Of The Speaker

The Office of the Speaker strives to improve the lives of all Illinoisans through the development of public policy that, at its core, reinforces respect for all people. We will create and support a workplace where we can share ideas and work through problems and conflict in a collaborative way, where our differences lead to a better understanding of each other, and where we can come together to find common ground.

Core Values • Maintain professional and ethical conduct at all times • Embrace teamwork and collaboration to accomplish our goals • Demonstrate respect and kindness for ourselves and others • Display openness to the opportunities that change and new ideas can bring • Recognize that inclusivity leads to creative ideas and innovation • Work always towards improved efficiency and effectiveness of outputs • Commit to continuous self-improvement • Provide support to others in their demonstration of these values
