Leading with honesty

Truthfulness is the foundation of all our values. As a company, we are 100% honest, always. This allows us to operate with a moral compass protecting us from many of the more toxic elements of today's corporate culture.

Importance of consultation

True consultation requires the participation of everyone at the table. Those with louder voices strive to make room for those who are usually quieter. Everyone holds a valuable perspective that deserves to be heard. We strive to create safe spaces for everyone to speak and be heard.

Rejection of gossip

We treat everyone with respect, understanding, and appreciation, be they our employees, vendors, partners, or competitors. Gossip and backbiting are corrosive habits that bring out the worst versions of ourselves. We try to never speak ill of one another and employ healthy and productive forms of communication. It is our goal to always lead with empathy and love.

our philosophy

the one planet way

read more about our core values and corporate culture

The betterment of the world can be accomplished 
through pure and goodly deeds and through commendable and seemly conduct.

― Baha'u'llah

Our founding philosophy is based on spiritual teachings of the Bahá’í Faith. As a company, we care deeply about others and the planet which we all inhabit. We believe that profit at any cost — regardless of the implication for others, the environment, or our own conscience — is an archaic way to do business. Instead, we try to show that there is a more compassionate way to proceed.

You can have healthy profitable margins while also caring for humanity at large. Intention isn’t meaning well, it’s doing well. We set a small yet robust example of how to pair good intentions with strong business models. We measure our success by how many lives we touch positively, and by the impact made in our communities and around the world.
