We’re fiercely committed to the values that are leading indicators of success: agility, curiosity, vision, delivery and helping.
Thriving in digital demands the long view, but wayfinding and following the right path is no easy feat. It’s one reason over 50% of software projects fail outright.
Maybe you’ve felt these frustrations directly:
- An all-in launch that leaves no budget to react to user and market feedback.
- An “activity without delivery” grind where the team churns on environments, regressions and plan-polishing, but with no tangible improvements coming out the other side.
- A site built on a crumbling technical foundation, which fails outright at a moment of scale (i.e. the worst possible time).
The long view keeps you clear of these scenarios and is grounded in values that we have found – through hard-won experience – to be leading indicators of success.
Agility
The more agile and evolutionary your approach, the greater your likelihood of long-term success. We work to replace the very concept of a singular “project” with a cadence of continual improvement that builds over time.
Curiosity
We over-homework problems. We want to know the core of each possible solution, the edges and the limitations (so we discover them now, not halfway through implementation). We’re curious about your business and the problems that digital is being enlisted to solve. Our Cultivate blog is a good indicator of what we’re currently exploring.
Vision
What will be the implications of a strategic, creative or technical choice 5 years down the line? Will it hold up to scrutiny, and can we “show our work” about the thought process that led to it? Have we selected a technical or creative framework with both a solid foundation and an arc that will match our ambitions? We ask these questions and test assumptions to keep you moving forward and out of common digital traps.
Delivery
We are scored on delivery. No excuses. No politics. No points for perfect problems.
Helping
We love helping people, particularly when we can apply our passion and skill to turning a field of thorny digital issues into a brightly thriving digital garden. It’s what we do. It’s why we’re here.
