Guiding Values
Action
Agility requires movement.
We have a strong bias for action.
We prefer showing you how to do rather than telling you.
Simplicity
We look for the simplest solution for you that will do the job best.
Simple solutions cost less and are faster to implement.
Transparency
In everything we do.
Transparency accelerates the building of trust. We’ll say what we’ll do, and do what we say, every step of the way.
Community
The true test of agility is to go faster and learn not just on our own but in collaboration with others.
