Catalan term or phrase: integrador
"XX ha adaptat el seu funcionament als principis de la direcció per valors, una nova proposta de direcció d’empreses de caràcter humanista i integrador."

This word is ambiguous for me here. My feeling is that the best term here is "inclusive" (ie it involves people). But it may be that it is "intergrated" as in all-encompassing, all parts working together...

What do others think, please?

Thanks a lot.

participative


Explanation:
i.e. "...with a more humane, participative approach to management / management style / management philosophy."

This is a guess based on the available context. You could also say "in which the concerns of all parties/staffmembers/employees are taken into account", for example, rather than limiting yourself to one word.

"Participative (or participatory) management, otherwise known as employee involvement or participative decision making, encourages the involvement of stakeholders at all levels of an organization in the analysis of problems, development of strategies, and implementation of solutions. Employees are invited to share in the decision-making process of the firm by participating in activities such as setting goals, determining work schedules, and making suggestions."
