  • Democratic Ownership – We believe that all working people deserve a voice in the governance of their organizations and the opportunity to build assets. We build democratic, worker owned businesses where workers share wealth, responsibility, and agency.

  • Entrepreneurship – We embrace new ideas and opportunities to create innovative business solutions. We strive to create transformative change by testing bold ideas in uncharted territories.

  • Transformation – We believe that large-scale reinvention of our economy is required for achieving a more equitable society.  We pursue bold actions that advance people, ideas, and organizations.

  • Empathy – We believe in the power of listening, viewing the world through the eyes of our partners, and centering the experiences of workers in the decisions that impact them. We value building deep, trusting partnerships with people and organizations.

  • Integrity – We believe in setting high standards for honest and ethical conduct in all aspects of our work. We act with respect and create a foundation of trust with our clients and partners.

  • Excellence – We believe that in order to solve big problems, we must approach our work with thoroughness, rigor, and a commitment to excellence. We set and achieve ambitious goals and develop creative approaches to every complex problem we encounter.
