Operating Principles

The philosophy behind the systems

Accessibility

Remove barriers to information, decision-making, and autonomy. Accessibility isn't just for disabilities—it's removing unnecessary obstacles that prevent people from doing their best work.

Autonomy

Build systems that enable independence, not create oversight. The goal is to work myself out of repetitive management tasks so teams can thrive without constant supervision.

Outcomes

Results over attendance, function over tradition. Location and structure should be chosen based on what serves the work best, not what looks like productivity.

Root Causes

Fix systems, not symptoms. Address upstream problems rather than applying band-aids. Sometimes the root cause is organizational structure or leadership decisions.
