Values
Six values guide how we work together.
1
AUTHENTICITY
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. Be who you are. Don’t shy away from difficult conversations. Build trust by always being honest, even when it’s hard.
2
TRANSPARENCY
Trust and transparency go hand in hand. Business transparency directly relates to positive outcomes. Nothing should be hidden. Share as much as you can.
3
EMPATHY
Empathy is the ability to understand and share another’s feelings. We promote empathy in business. Empathy and positive human relationships are important above all else.
4
CONTINUOUS LEARNING
There are no experts. We share what we know, but we don’t have all the answers. We want to work with smart people who take us out of our comfort zones. If it feels comfortable, we’re not learning.
5
GYSHIDO
GyShiDo = Get your shit done. It means razor-sharp focus and that your team is never waiting on you — like ever. And for the record, we support having fewer meetings. You can read more about GyShiDo here.
6
CONNECTION
We're known for bringing diverse people together. We connect people and share our networks with others because amazing results happen when we do — diversity and community are powerful.
