Work at Willow

Believing the Best | Trust is our default

• We champion each other.
• We are “for” each other.
• We seek to understand and resolve conflicts quickly. We take responsibility for our weaknesses and failures.

Commit to Candor | Kindness is our way

• We speak up in the room.
• We have courageous conversations.
• We minimize ‘the meeting after the meeting.’ We don’t ignore red flags.

Embrace Challenge | Grit is our style

• We make space for innovation and are relentless in finding a third way.
• We embrace failure as part of our story and won’t let fear hold us back.
• Our actions and work show that we are “all in.”
• We are always learning, evaluating, and growing from both mistakes and successes.

Setting the Tone | Joy is our attitude

• We express gratitude, appreciation, and words of encouragement.
• We smile. We laugh. We create intentional fun.
• We engage in random acts of kindness and create “make my day” experiences regularly. We don’t take ourselves too seriously.
• We choose hope in all seasons and look for where God is moving in every circumstance.

Choose Unity | Diversity is our strength

• We are always asking: whose voice is missing at this table?
• We build teams with diverse perspectives across racial, gender, age, position, and campus lines.
• We actively learn from and intentionally engage in relationships with those different from ourselves. We embody and represent our communities.
• We collaborate and share ideas and information liberally with each other across campuses and teams
