KYSHA’S CREDO

When you work with me, I have guiding principles that I live and work by – my Culture Credo. This is the context from which I operate both personally and professionally. This is the experience I bring to partnerships and service today, tomorrow, and time after time.

I believe our greatest success is in the synergy of our collective contribution. I aim to be supportive and honoring, and I hold the space in which we can all be supported and honored. For the sake of balance, I believe it’s important to cultivate an environment of joy because most of the challenges we tackle together are quite serious. I think of it as Having Fun & Getting It Done. Many of us work long hours or all hours as a means of bringing harmony to our lives and our life’s work. When we can’t bring balance to the home hours to office hours equation, we can still bring harmony to our overall experience. For me, beauty is also integral to a harmonious experience. Whether it’s a pretty pen, my optical frames, or some small something, you’ll always find me with an implement of aesthetic inspiration. Finally, I declare that we are the ones with the courage and heart to take on the challenges of our time. For this, I bring my whole self.

If my principles align with yours, let’s talk about how we might work together.
