Be Curious—
Readiness demands curiosity—embracing continuous learning, adaptation, and exploration is the only path to meeting tomorrow with open eyes and solid footing. The best part is that it's not only necessary, it's enriching. All of the best relationships, knowledge, ideas, and values are the result of being open, asking questions, and caring enough to unearth and understand the answers.
Be Helpful—
We are here to be of service to others—to leaders, founders, executives, junior staff, stakeholders, to each other. We are here to empower, inspire, and support the brave and hard-working folks leading our society into the future. Like most people, we have bills to pay and would love to be able to take more vacations and spring for table-side guac every now and then. But money isn't an effective motivator for things that matter—being of service to others is the reason we show up.
Be Good—
Every business, including ours, has the capacity to shape and influence society and the world around them. Readiment amplifies that potential with a platform and services to help you achieve better, to do better, and to be better. Readiment helps businesses not simply to succeed, but to matter. We hold ourselves to a higher standard for integrity, humility, and equity because it's the right thing to do, and because it leads to better social and business outcomes.
And Act Accordingly—
Culture is ultimately the result of how we think and how we act. Values without action are hollow. In striving to express our values through our actions, we maintain a focus on three tenets— Be Flexible, Be Focused, and Be Ready. In truth, this is as simple as practicing what we preach, working to foster flexibility to adapt to shifts in client needs as well as changes to market forces; and focused to deliver product and value where it's needed when it's needed. Being Ready means we've succeeded in the first two.
