MBM introduction
GP utilizes its business philosophy called Market Based Management or MBM to create value for its customers, the company, and society. We know from history, economics and many other disciplines that prosperous societies have rules and values encouraging entrepreneurial innovations that tend to make its members better off over the long term. The MBM approach is to draw on these lessons and apply them to a business. MBM is a large set of ever-evolving mental models that are organized by, and interpreted through, a framework of five interdependent and mutually reinforcing dimensions: vision, virtue and talents, knowledge processes, decision rights and incentives. The MBM Guiding Principles, which are a model within the virtue and talents dimension, form the MBM culture.

We seek candidates for the position described below that are comfortable with and will be successful in a company like GP that utilizes MBM.
