About the Via Team
Core Values
Add Ideas to Ideas
Innovate by improving others’ ideas and welcoming enhancements to your own, while staying connected to the big picture through cross-industry learning. Look for ways to address issues when change is needed for the greater good.
We've Got your Back
Be reliable, accountable, and trustworthy, doing what you say and saying what you do. Provide support, offer collaboration and constructive feedback, and always boost your teammates that help you with good vibes to spread gratitude.
If Not Me, Who?
Be action-oriented and proactive, addressing problems without waiting for others. Offer observations and ideas first, and ensure completion of both big and small tasks. Instead of waiting for problems to be solved – take initiative!
Eyes on Data, Ears on People
Make decisions based on data, using both information and compassion as your guide. Consider the statistics carefully while also listening attentively to people’s perspectives and feelings.
Do the Right Thing
Respond with kindness and compassion, maintaining positivity about clients and competition. When others go low, we go high, remembering that blowing out others’ candles doesn’t make ours burn brighter.
