Our Values
Obsess over the customer
Think from the customer’s perspective and work backwards. Build long-term partnerships, even if it means sacrificing short-term gains. Embody high standards and constantly raise the bar. We earn our partners’ trust by doing hard things well.
Have a clear vision
Start with the end goal in mind. Define. Define. Define. Once your vision is clear, the optimal solution will be revealed. By communicating simple clear goals, visionaries become magnetic.
Execute relentlessly
Make big promises and over-deliver. Set the goal and focus on the most important problems, not the most urgent. Be an expert and work with other experts to solve problems with speed, accountability, and commitment. Rapidly learn from your mistakes.
Focus on the bottom line
Achieve more with less. Leaders are rewarded for resourcefulness and innovation. Leverage constraints to find creative and efficient solutions. Scalably and sustainably deliver the best products at the lowest cost.
Have the right attitude
Think like an owner — we do what we say. We are all entrepreneurs in the cannabis industry and we respect the intense struggle of the entrepreneurial process. We know that without the entrepreneurs in this industry, we have no business. Win the right way and be competitive, but stay humble.
Lead together
Leaders develop other leaders into smart, humble, hard-working, and collaborative people. Help others understand the "why" behind every decision and value. Be able to teach the subject and have empathy and examples to explain it.
