Every ConnectSouth employee receives a handbook that begins with this message from our CEO:

"It has been said that each company has its own special "culture" expressed as values, goals, and key objectives. We believe that, here at ConnectSouth, we have an especially strong and remarkable culture for an emerging Internet company.

People, Customers, Performance, Efficiency, Teamwork, Creativity and Commitment. To us, these are not merely words, but a description of how we as a company do business and the traits of the employees that work here. ConnectSouth employees join our team based on the high values that we share and bring to our company."

-- Jeff Mucci, CEO, March 13, 2000
