Wood Dale, Illinois — AAR CORP. (NYSE: AIR), a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, welcomed its new Component Services team members and unveiled new purpose and mission statements to guide the Company into the future.
Earlier today, the Company held a global fireside chat, where John M. Holmes, AAR’s Chairman, President and CEO, introduced team members to the Company’s new Senior Vice President of Component Services, Jim Berberet, who joined AAR on March 1 as part of AAR’s acquisition of Triumph Group’s Product Support business. Berberet shared insight into the history and culture of the teams at the five newly acquired Component Services locations while the global AAR team enthusiastically welcomed their newest counterparts.
“As I introduced the broader AAR team to more than 700 new employees from the acquisition, it became even clearer to me that we all share the same values. We already feel like one cohesive team,” said Berberet.
Immediately following the fireside chat, the Company unveiled its new purpose and mission statements. The statements, created by a cross-functional team, reflect the Company’s reason for being and approach to achieving its objectives. The reimagined purpose and mission complement AAR’s existing values, commitment to Doing It Right®, and vision and diversity statements. They read:
