OUR VALUES
We are owners

This is a “free for all”. Tenure, rank, pedigree, job title, etc... do not matter. Only thing that carries merit is the quality of the idea and ability to execute. No task is above or beneath anyone. We are in the business of delivering results and hiring and developing the best.

01
We happen to the world

The world doesn't happen to us. We refuse to sit back and let things happen to us. Things happen, but we control how we choose to respond and interact. If we don't like something, we go change it ourselves.

02
We never split the difference

Usually, there’s a best approach to any problem. We always follow the best approach (to the best of our knowledge). We NEVER negotiate or compromise on the best approach i.e., we never split the difference.

03
We operate in tight formation

The well coordinated few will always win against a much larger, but disorganized, group. Sometimes, we will need to disagree and commit, but we always operate in tight formation.

04
We are specific

Nothing gets achieved with generics. We always talk about specific events, specific tasks, specific actions. Anecdotes and platitudes help us identify where problems might be, specifics help us confirm and solve problems.
