- **Regional Victoria**

We are a vibrant group of individuals who love what we do and know why we do it: To ‘empower great futures for our clients and their families.’

**OUR COMPANY PILLARS** - Our team shares a common thread:
**ATTITUDE** - we are a force. We’re in your corner and have the grit and determination to get stuff done. Underneath the swagger you’ll find warmth, imagination, openness and solutions that delight and surprise.

**COLLABORATION** - we are respectful. We are one team and we believe in mutual respect. This means no politics or grandstanding, just communicating deeply and thoughtfully with each other, our clients (and everyone else).

**TRUTH-FULLNESS** - we pass the pub test. If we make a mistake, we’re happy to own it. We hope that this doesn’t happen too often, because we put the work in to do things right the first time. We have a clear picture of what is acceptable before we start.

**AMBITION** - we never settle. We are about achieving real outcomes for each other and those we support. We’re constantly learning, growing, striving and evolving so that we lift ourselves and each other to be best we can be.

**SIMPLICITY** - we are uncomplicated. Most things are complex, but we make them simple for ourselves and others. We set a clear vision from the start, resolve issues without fuss and if we need advice or assistance, we ask for it.

**COURAGE** - we dare to be different. We have the courage to take on big challenges because we’ve built the foundation to support each other. Together we have the guts to leap into the unknown and never leave anyone behind.

**PURPOSE** - We are on a mission. We aim to empower great futures for our clients and their families. We do this because we love it. We also know that when we assist others we help ourselves, our families our community and the world.

**EMPOWERMENT** - We are empowered. We operate with openness, encouragement, autonomy and possibility. We give each other the tools and resources to succeed and the space to learn. This way, we grow into roles and responsibilities that are great.

**INCLUSION** - We want you. If you like what we stand for, we want you too. We want you as a client, a team member and business partner and we want it to be long-term. We care about where you’re going and how we can help you get there.
