Thrive*

We believe that it is the inalienable right of every human being to Thrive. From this perspective, we must move far beyond survival. In our organizations, we thrive when we create spaces for whole human beings to engage in collaborative enterprise for the common good. This is a basic framework that we can apply to help simplify what seems immensely complex.

We can help you assess where your people are experiencing your organization on a scale from 'barely making it through the day' to 'joyfully meeting our mission and objectives'. We assess by asking questions about the six key elements of a thriving system.

Clarity

We long to understand what is expected of us, what the norms and values of our organizations are. Our work should prioritize communication & understanding.

Courage

We need to normalize risk taking and create safe spaces to fail. We cultivate bravery in the face of social and organizational barriers to authenticity.

Embrace a whole system viewpoint, seeing the interconnectedness of people, processes, strategy & work. Manage around silos.

Wholeness

*The Thrive framework was developed by Faith in collaboration with Renee Smith, Lili Boyanova-Hugh, Rick Gage and others through a project with A Human Workplace.

Hope

Create space between action & reaction, between thoughtfulness & self created crisis. Breathe. Only in slowing down do we see all potentials.

More is not always better. Explore the effectiveness of choice, the possibility of less. Become prioritization ninjas!

No endeavor can truly thrive unless we can believe that tomorrow might be better than today. And that we have the power to make it so.
