Our Values
Our work will be guided and informed by our beliefs and commitments to:
- ReliabilityWe show up. If we are 5 minutes early for a meeting, we are already 10 minutes late.
- ExcellenceWe step up. Everything we do we do with excellence, from brushing our teeth and tying our shoes to analyzing complex patterns of data to serving our clients.
- IntegrityWe respect ourselves and other people by being honest, responsible, and trustworthy. We say what we do and do what we say. We take extreme ownership of our actions and inactions.
- Compassionate AwarenessWe promote intentional, nonjudgmental kindness to ourselves and others. We are warm and understanding toward ourselves and others when we or others suffer, fail, or feel inadequate.
- InclusivenessWe respect people, value diversity, and are committed to a more socially just world. We work towards a socially just world by first creating a work environment where resources, rights, and power are equitable without signs of oppression.
