Company values
- At the centre of what makes our culture unique is authenticity. The word authenticity correlates to the Sanskrit word satya, which means that which is true, has value, endures and illuminates
- We are Authentic: Carl Jung: "The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are."
- We are Mindful: Thich Nhat Hanh: “The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.”
- We think Upstream: Nei Jing: “Maintaining order rather than correcting disorder is the ultimate principle of wisdom. To cure disease after it has appeared is like digging a well when one feels thirsty or forging weapons after the war has already begun.”
- We Subtract: Lao Tzu: “To attain knowledge, add things every day. To attain wisdom, remove things every day."
- We are Interdependent: African Proverb: Ubuntu: I am because you are
