Intellectual
Curiosity

The origin of creativity, innovation, and intelligent problem-solving can often be traced back to curiosity.  Asking ‘Why?’ usually leads to a better place, even though the journey might be longer.

Wisdom

For us, there’s no “syllabus week.” At the beginning of each client relationship, we hit the ground running by digging into the purest expression of individuality: the brand essence. Our arrival at the heart of your brand is made possible by Binocular — our data-driven model for helping higher learning institutions discover their true points of differentiation. Using 270 data points, a proprietary algorithm, and artificial intelligence, Binocular helps us identify your strengths, your mission, and your values: what makes “U” you.

Excellence

From the quality of the idea to the creative execution, we place paramount emphasis on doing things with the highest degree of excellence.  Limited not just to the work we produce, excellence permeates the way we relate to others and the level of integrity with which we serve.

Strategy

What we do is rooted in the core tenets of strategic frameworks and strategic thinking.  The stakes are too high to proceed with tactics not grounded in strategic rationale, even if they don’t always materialize exactly as expected.
