All of us at HYCU take ownership in shaping and contributing to our culture.We pride ourselves in developing an inclusive and diverse company that supports ouremployees and customers to do extraordinary things.
The following is how we approach each Core Value:
- Authenticity- To be authentic means to be who we are and do it well. Focus your energy on being who YOU are. Be true to yourself. Authenticity also extends to our products. Understanding where we are truly the best fit for our customers and when we are not. And finally, authenticity in relationships: ensuring that we are honest and do what we say we're going to do.
- Grit - To win we need to want it. Every team member needs to be able to jump in and help at every turn. Whether it's staying late to help a colleague or customer or finding a better process and making sure it's communicated cross-functionally. You just have to do it and love it...and never stop trying.
- Empathy - We need to care about each other, about our clients, about our business, and about the world around us. That might seem like a tall order, but if we don't live in a constant state of empathy, if we don't strive to truly put ourselves in another person's shoes, we cannot truly serve the market.
