It takes hard work, luck and patience to build great companies. There is also no substitute for time. It takes time for markets to emerge, for companies to mature, and for people to develop.

We are also committed to a culture of integrity, entrepreneurship, and achievement. We take pride in our reputation and believe in the power of people engaged and freed of unnecessary constraints.

Only by engaging the hearts and minds of our people can we fully achieve our goals. The constraints of inadequate leadership, unclear mission, ineffective communication, misaligned interests and lack of mutual respect are hazards to our success. In pursuit of our goals we will conduct ourselves in accordance with the following mission statement.
