OUR CORE VALUES

Be a Self-Starter.

Constantly search out opportunities to improve yourself, your team, and the business. Have the courage to identify problems, solve them, or tell someone who can. Work with a true sense of urgency. Take action, take responsibility, and finish it on time.

Be a Team Player.

Encourage others and celebrate when they succeed. Be willing to pitch in when someone needs help, prioritizing team results above individual results. We believe MountainSeed will succeed to the extent that we can create healthy, high-performing teams.

Don't be an optimist or a pessimist. Be a patriot.

Everything at MountainSeed is not good, and everything is not bad. Passionately seek the greater good for the organization, and be brutally honest about what's working and what's not working. MountainSeed isn't loved because it's great. MountainSeed will be great because it's loved.

Do it Right.

Be the kind of person who does things right even when no one's watching, even if your boss won't catch it, and even if the client won't notice. No one's perfect, but be solid and have integrity.

Be Humble.

Ask first how you can add value. Humility gets harder the more power you have. Invert the org chart - serve those you lead. At MountainSeed, the best idea wins no matter where it comes from. Be intellectually humble, the kind of person that can change your mind in the face of new information or a different perspective.
