Our Workplace Philosophy

  • We live what we preach. We use Total Relaxed Organization and practice empowering leadership as demonstrated in the book Neverboss. These powerful approaches let us recruit and develop the happiest, most motivated, most productive talent.
  • We value potential (what you CAN do) over experience (what you DID). What could you accomplish if you were given more authority and ownership? Are you an overlooked, undervalued talent? If you’ve seen the movie Moneyball, you get the idea.
  • We are a 100% virtual organization to accommodate our workers, clients, and partners. That includes core team members and contractors who see us as their anchor client. We are telework pioneers, it’s been a strategic advantage to us since 1997. We use it to find, hire, and develop the best talent potential around the world.
  • We continually learn from each other and our clients. The group is always smarter than the individual. We listen, we value different viewpoints, then we synthesize and move forward rapidly.
  • We are agile. In business, to us this means: 1) it must not be perfect at first, 2) we get it out there quickly in the hands of real customers, and 3) we rapidly and continually improve it based on actual feedback instead of guesswork.

Consider these philosophies as you work through our hiring process.

Before You Start: reAD OUR Universal Prerequisites

These are bare minimum prerequisites for applying. They are only a starting point for all positions here—we will talk more in depth in your interviews.

  • You have read Neverboss by Kevin Crenshaw.*
  • You have watched some episodes of Who’s In Charge Here? (Empowering Leadership in Minutes) by Kevin Crenshaw on YouTube.
  • You are excited about practicing empowering leadership in your work environment and the world.
  • You have excellent communication skills, both written and spoken. (Currently all of our work is in English, but we intend to expand into other languages.)
  • You have a professional presence consistent with Fortune 100 dress, conduct, and grooming standards. (We work with companies that size all the time. However, most of our virtual telework is audio, not video, so there’s plenty of opportunity to be casual.)
  • You exemplify the four other crucial attributes of great candidates. If you’ve read Neverboss, you know what they are.

Way Beyond Equal Opportunity. We do not discriminate on the basis of anything other than your potential and demonstrated ability to perform the work, where and when required, at the highest levels of professionalism, quality, integrity, safety, and productivity, using the principles and tools of empowering leadership (see Neverboss) and following the published standards of our organization. We are fans of Ban the Box and organizations like Defy Ventures and Greyston Bakery, which means we don’t care about your moments of greatest regret. We build organizations where everyone is safe emotionally, physically, and professionally, regardless of mistakes. And we live that standard. After all, “mistakes are good… IF we learn from them.” (Contact us for the full details of this standard.)

Even if the position is filled, no worries! We hire for our clients, too! If you’re an awesome candidate but our slot is currently filled, we will refer you to one of our worldwide empowering leadership clients or to our deep network of professionals.
