Our values...

  1. Individual Impact: Every single person has a role to play in making this company faster. Own your work, projects and initiatives, and be fully responsible for driving them forward.

  2. Ownership and Deadlines: Every initiative, task, work, etc should have one clearly publicly stated owner that is driving the above from origin to completion with a publicly stated ambitious deadline that ensures we are stretching, innovating, and problem solving to accomplish things faster rather than letting the time decide how long something should take

  3. Extreme Focus on One Priority: There's always more work, but let's work on the right thing at the right time. Identify the single most important initiative for you and your team, and focus your energy on it whether it's for the hour, the day, the week, month, quarter, year. Multitasking is the enemy of excellence.

  1. Bias Toward Action: Speed is our biggest asset. If something can be done today, don't delay. Inaction is not tolerated here. We should all feel empowered to make decisions and move things forward, and if you're blocked, raise your hand quickly.
