Our Values
Our values are all about how we work, how we work with you and how we make decisions as a business.
Have meaningful fun
We bring a playful, fun edge to our approach. We believe that having fun is the best way to engage people and get them involved. We take our work seriously, but this doesn't mean we have to be boring.
Win as a team
Winning as a team is much more enjoyable than winning alone. We love collaboration and we’re big believers in the power of diverse thinking. The only way to tackle modern-day challenges is by combining diverse powers to think differently.
Build self-sufficiency
We're focused on creating self-sufficiency and removing unnecessary complexity. We believe that for a great culture to stick, every person in the business needs to have the tools to contribute positively.
Keep it fresh
Modern people & culture is an exciting, fast-evolving space. We look far and wide to capture the freshest thinking in our easy-to-use games, tools and frameworks.
