Civic Engagement

“At the centre of our challenge as an enterprise is a fundamental obligation to innovate and operate as a community of leaders—aligned around a set of values: humanity, humility, integrity and excellence. More than mere words, these beliefs stand at the foundation of all we pursue—in relationships with stakeholders, as stewards of the company’s mission, and as engaged citizens committed to sharing strength in our global community.”

Timberland is a big company. Big enough that our actions impact people across time zones not to mention oceans. It’s also a community of several thousand creative, dedicated and hardworking people. We’ve spent the last three decades crafting rugged boots, shoes, clothing and gear that exceed expectations. But there’s a lot more to Timberland than a logo on a jacket and a pair of waterproof boots.

At our core is a belief in the power of people to transform their communities and make a difference in the world. We know that how we do business has a direct effect on the communities where we live and work. We have an opportunity to make it better. We would be foolish not to try.

We’re driven by a promise to be accountable for everything we do. From the way our products are produced to the way the buildings where we work are designed; from service events to the quality of life of our global workforce; we aspire to lead by example, and to add value to the lives that we touch.

It might seem like connecting boots and clothes with the concept of global community is a stretch, but by making sure that those same boots and clothes are designed, produced, shipped and sold in a way that positively impacts the world, we’re making the global community better. And if we engage with our communities in service, our positive impact is only multiplied.

We share a deep belief that people united in service can change the world. We invite you to join us.
