Our Philosophies
These are our long standing beliefs, with only small changes over time. They help us make and challenge decisions. We passionately believe in these philosophies and reference them often.
1 - People
The company is our people. We care about our people, their health and wellbeing, their family and âBrightness of Futureâ. We have high expectations of performance and teamwork and promote from within. We nurture, trust and invest in our people and we include everyone.
2 - Egalitarianism
Each individual has equal privileges and rights. There is no us and them. We operate an open and transparent business, with total information sharing. We encourage honest communication between all roles.
3 - A.M.P.
Autonomy. Mastery. Purpose. Our 3 biggest motivators. We aim to contribute towards something bigger than ourselves. We control our own destiny, seek to improve our skills and fulfil our potential.
4 - Take Responsibility
We look within and take responsibility for our own success and failures. See it as it is, not worse, not better, always moving forward. We âTalk Upâ to improve the company and our own experience.
5 - Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish
We take our business seriously but we donât take ourselves too seriously. Work is fun, we enjoy what we do and we celebrate.
6 - Ownership
Itâs important to treat the business like itâs your own business, with a passion for your role. We offer our people financial ownership, through Shares, Business Ownership Schemes (BOS), Profit Share and Commission.
7 - Customers
We are driven by consistently listening, understanding and improving on the customerâs perspective. We encourage and embrace our competition to benefit the customer.
8 - Family Village Tribe
We have a simple, flat and transparent structure. Based on how we evolved to work together.
Family = Your Team of ideally 6 people, up to 8.
Village = Your local group of teams
Tribe = Your whole area or business or brand, up to 200 people
Leaders or aspiring leaders spend time on the front line to stay in touch and facilitate better decisions and direction. This allows for greater empathy and genuine understanding.
9 - One Best Way
We follow One Best Way to achieve high standards, until a better way is found. We believe in a model of continuous improvement. Decisions are made where the action is. We value common sense over conventional wisdom.
10 - Purpose Drives Profit
Profit is the best measure of success, but that is worth nothing if we donât execute our core purpose. Purpose is more important than profit. We do the right thing, not the easy or self serving thing. The world is a better place because Pedal Group is in it. Long term thinking, playing the infinite game.
