Ethos - the way we are organised

In more detail..

• Ethos specialists are all Partners (20 active currently) who own our business.

• Ultimately, we will create a private share market for new and existing Partners.

• We don’t have “contracts of employment” rather “value exchanges”. Two way.

• We care about people. ALL people. We want to add value to everyone's

working lives.

• Ethos makes money through the revenue, profit or equity associated with each

solution we take part in (we prefer this to time/input based revenue).

• We increasingly become an accelerator. Common culture for solving and

delivering complex service problems….

• We have three “themes” currently…

These are some of our current clients…
