Abstract

In this chapter, the author explains how Allianz Global Investors’ Corporate Values (Excellence, Passion, Integrity, Respect) and related People Attributes (Entrepreneurship, Trust, Collaborative Leadership, Customer and Market Excellence) can be applied in the day-to-day management of an Economics and Strategy research team and how the Values and People Attributes are interrelated. The team manager’s role is very much too lead by example. An appropriate organizational framework set up by the company is required in addition.
