The values below represent how we approach our lives and the work we do. They are what you can expect from working with us and an idea of what it might feel like to be on a project with us.
Integrity is built on a platform of self understanding
Integrity is deeply lived through everything you say and do
Integrity is investing all of you into something because you know it is something you deeply care about
Only partnering with people whose vision and values are similar to our own
Make sure you behave how you wish everyone else to behave
When something unexpected happens, call it out & talk it through
Principles
Pragmatism is to expend as little energy as possible to create the most positive change
All frameworks, models and processes are wrong but many are useful
Appreciate that every situation is unique and requires its own approach
Before a meeting, sprint or project, make sure you have designed and agreed on the intentions and outcomes
Improve the experience of working with you/team every time you restart a project
At every phase of the project decide what frameworks, processes and tools are required
For every activity do decide what fidelity of output you need
We continuously learn and improve by doing
Use the right tool for the job
Principles
People are the central point to any change you want to make
People are complex and ever-changing, continuously take the time to understand their needs and feelings
We believe in the good in people & particularly those who have dedicated their lives to people first organisations
People thrive in an environment where they feel safe, trusted and understood
Be the person you wish to follow
How you might see that manifest working with us
Take the time to talk and understand the people you work with (not just “work”)
Take whatever it is you’re doing, deconstruct it and look at what people really need. Build it back up with a focus on those things. Acknowledge everyone in the room and make them feel safe and valid.
Appreciate everyone’s knowledge level and communication needs
Remember and summarise what others tell you and play it back to them for further clarity
As soon as you realise a mistake, call it out with those that you made it with
Personalised and considerate emails, always specify something personal that you paid attention to
Principles
Complexity is something to be celebrated and taken head on
The only true wisdom consists in knowing that you know nothing
Nothing is ever done, it’s only as far as you could take it with the knowledge you had at that moment
How you might see that manifest working with us
Don’t pretend to understand, ask all of the questions, especially the stupid ones
You should leave a project satisfied with what you did but knowing there is always more to do
Understand the why together
Principles
There’s always a better way and we endeavour to find it
The only constant is change, for better or for worse
"No man ever steps in the same river twice."
How you might see that manifest working with us
Question every part of the process
Question established wisdom within an industry
Question but then accept if no change is possible (see )
Principles
It’s not worth doing if you can’t have fun with it
Mischief is a wonderful outlet for difficult times
Reserve your jesters privilege whenever possible
Just because it's purposeful work doesn't mean you can't have fun with it
How you might see that manifest working with us
Using humour as a way to deal with difficult circumstances
Our work is often deep and meaningful but that doesn't mean we won't have fun with it
