Please review our core values that fuel everything we do at Bearded Bros:
- We first: Always be checking your ego. Admit when you’re wrong. This is a hard business and we need team mentalities, not hero wannabes.
- No Eeyores: Be true to yourself but have the respect and professionalism to show up to work with positive energy, especially on the days you don’t feel like it. Negative vibes not wanted.
- Open to feedback, with follow through: We are all a work in progress. Receive feedback with gratitude and have the humbleness to follow through on the feedback received.
- Tenacious: Building something great is not easy. Keep at it when things are hard, confusing, and overwhelming. Don’t give up and be persistent.
- Treat others like they want to be treated: We treat people with kindness, respect, and approach relationships with empathy, meeting others where they are.
- Extreme ownership: An ode to Jocko Wilink’s book, “Extreme Ownership.” We take ownership of our responsibilities and do not assign blame to anywhere else but to ourselves when our work is done or not done.
