There are companies and there are amazing companies. Creating a company is easy. Anyone can do it. But creating an amazing company takes something different.
Amazing companies are the places that inspire people. They are the companies people aspire to work for and work with. They are the companies so in tune with the people they serve that people want to follow them. They want to be a part of the work they produce.
Amazing companies are where opportunities exist. Where people learn and grow. Where people shape and influence the work they do because they know what needs to be done. Where people can do their best work.
Amazing companies are the companies people love.
This document sets out how we are creating that amazing company.

The foundations of our culture and values were established by our founder and CEO, Ben Heald.
![Page 28: Sift Media Culture Code - Inspiring Positive Action](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051413/553835a6550346f53d8b4703/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Since then, we’ve spent time with our teams to capture the things that make up our culture.
We call this our Culture Code.

WHAT IS
CULTURE?It’s a 'way of life' that explains why groups do things. It’s the shared beliefs, values and practices. It’s our shared code, our way of getting things done.

“A Company is a culture. A group of people brought together around a common set of values and beliefs. It’s not products or services that bind a company together. It’s not the size and might that make a company strong, it’s the culture - the strong sense of beliefs and values that everyone from the CEO to the receptionist, all share.”

THE IMPORTANCE OF
CULTURE
Brian CheskyCo-founder, CEOAirbnb
“The stronger the culture, the less corporate process a company needs. When the culture is strong, you can trust everyone to do the right thing. People can be independent and autonomous. They can be entrepreneurial. And if we have a company that is entrepreneurial in spirit, we will be able to take our next “(wo)man on the moon” leap.”

A great culture creates an amazing place to work, amazing people to work with, and the opportunity to create amazing work.
It helps us achieve our amazing ambitions.

“People think focus means saying yes to the thing you've got to focus on. But that's not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. I'm actually as proud of the things we haven't done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying no to 1,000 things.”

A MINDSET FOR
GROWTH
Carol DweckMindset: The New Psychology of Success
People with a fixed mindset seek approval; those with a growth mindset seek development.
The fixed mindset sees failures as disasters; the growth mindset sees them as opportunities.
People with a fixed mindset avoid difficulties; those with a growth mindset relish them.

We value autonomy with purpose.
We set our direction through goals that help us focus on delivering our purpose. But how we achieve those goals is down to our people. We empower them to be autonomous.
