Our Core Values

Our core values are the written expression of the values that guide us in everything we do. John Wallace first penned them on a flight during a business trip as he envisioned the staff and the legacy that he desired for our firm. On the first airline napkin within reach, he wrote the following values that still guide us today:

Honesty
Respect
Quality
Commitment
Support
Passion
Logo Icon

Our logo represents the diversity of Wallace Group and how our team works together with our surroundings in simple yet rich harmony. As one team comprised of multiple disciplines and perspectives, we find unity not only in our core values, but also in the elements of earth and water. This connection and the multi-disciplinary nature of our company inspired our logo as our company identity changed in 2004 from John L. Wallace Associates to Wallace Group. Our logo demonstrates an abstract of the earth, water, and layers of specialties exemplified by our team. The brilliant, deep red color was influenced by the richness of the earth’s soil.
