Values
🌱 Cultivate Trust
- We value trust as the foundation of everything we do. We cultivate it continuously with our founders, employees, partners, and customers.
- We start relationships from positions of trust and are sensitive to changes in it. We transparently address and work to rebuild trust when needed with openness and urgency.
Guardrails: We do not use trust as an excuse to hold a low bar for quality of partners, fail to exercise due diligence, or neglect to hold ourselves and each other accountable.
⛏️ Dig Deeply
- We value knowledge as a source of our competitive advantage, which rests on the knowledge of industry insiders and the experience of highly tenured professionals we work with.
- We put in a high amount of effort and care to understand our customers, the industries we enter, and the environments in which we operate. This gives us well-formed opinions backed by knowledge and insights, and protects us from going wherever the wind blows.
Guardrails: We do not use knowledge as an excuse to act with hubris, underestimate complexity, or dismiss the importance of first principles thinking as part of decision making.
🌵 Continuously Adapt
- We value adaptability as critical for growth and resilience. As part of our adaptability we embrace change with confidence and grace.
- We are curious, hungry for learning, and always searching for new and better ways of doing things.
Guardrails: We do not use adaptability as an excuse to compromise our integrity, waffle on our core values, or prematurely pivot away from strategic bets.
