The hello assist Values Adaptability We lead with empathy and take care of one another. The ability to change and adjust one’s behavior or strategy based on the shifting demands of the organization, market, or general circumstances. Being proactive and resourceful in new environments with the capacity to bounce back from setbacks.   Client-Centric Our goal is to make it easier for our clients to see success in less time and with less effort and sacrifice. We don’t have to “acquire” clients; our clients do that for us. “Client-centricity isn’t about focusing on the client to the exclusion of everything else; it’s about considering the client in every decision you make.” -Anonymous   Simplification And Systemization We work to identify the root cause of issues and then create the simplest system to solve it once and for all. In a quest to get and be “more,” it’s very easy to add ”more,” but we prefer having and doing less to achieve “more”. “The more constraints one imposes, the more one frees one’s self.” -Igor Stravinsky   Accountability To blame someone else is to admit you are powerless. We do what is asked and then some. If someone else messes up it was our fault for counting on them in the first place. Complaining and excuses will not be tolerated. “Responsibility equals accountability equals ownership. And a sense of ownership is the most powerful weapon a team or organization can have.” -Pat Summitt   Radical Transparency Transparency builds trust, trust builds teams, and teams build companies. Transparency sometimes means revealing your flaws, which only creates more trust, which only builds better companies. “If you are handling things well, radical transparency will make that clear, and if you are handling things badly, radical transparency will make that clear as well, so it helps to maintain high standards.” -Ray Dalio   We Improve Daily Everyday is a chance to learn something new. Relentless and persistent, we pursue to improve and better ourselves with each day that passes. No matter how small, a win is a win and we will celebrate it. “Action leads to insight more often than insight leads to action.” -Unknown   Adaptability The ability to change and adjust one’s behavior or strategy based on the shifting demands of the organization, market, or general circumstances.
