Our Mission & Values
The iCrossing mission is to Transform Experiences. The "we" is implied, but never taken for granted. This mission impacts the way we work, the way we think, the way we treat one another, and the way we evolve into what we want to be. We operate as a community of humans, and we can adapt and evolve because we are guided by values not rules. Our core values map back to our vision.
Be Kind : lead with compassion. What you truly know about someone's life is very little.
Lead with Candor : know the line. Is what you say true, good, and useful?
We Before Me : lead for others. The sum is always going to be greater than the parts.
We evolve clients for a human-centric future - creating a better world for everyone.
