We encourage others to explore new ideas, understand our commercial priorities, and to take ownership of what they do.

Growth Mindset
We have a hunger to learn, to take on unfamiliar ideas and activities, and to explore new experiences.
We see effort as the path to achievement and keep going even when dealing with setbacks or challenging situations.
We learn from our successes and failures, seek feedback, and take action to amplify our strengths and address weaknesses.
