When researching and learning about a new company, one of the first things you can find is its values and principles. This is the first indication of what a company values in its operations and characteristics of their employees. More than just a guideline, these values and principles should be seen as the foundation on which they operate. Kirby Risk was built on 10 solid values and principles that inspired our team from the very start.

“Companies that are built to last stay true to their values and we’ve done that throughout the years, and it served us so well.”

— Jim Risk, CEO of Kirby Risk Corporation.
