We thrive in a changing environment. Our team adapts quickly to changes in clients' needs, projects and the university's priorities. We remain effective, positive and proactive throughout these changes. We are able to grasp complexity quickly and add immediate value to the clients and UBC as a whole.
compassion
We show kindness and empathy toward each other and ourselves, and are genuinely concerned with the wellbeing of all members. Our engagements and interactions are grounded in transparency, openness, trust, and respect and we support each other in our individual pursuit of balance and wellness.
commitment to collaborative success
We are committed to each other and demonstrate a “one-team” attitude. We work to bring out the best in each other and encourage idea generation and constructive dialogue. Our team recognizes and respects each other’s contribution, talents and beliefs, as well as the capacity and desire for personal growth. We develop one another through apprenticeship and mentoring. Through our projects, we partner with clients to enhance their capabilities and capacity and drive value creation. We rely on our clients’ knowledge, experience and resources; and we share our expertise, pan-university perspective and network with our clients.
