We understand our work on individual grant projects in connection to the big picture – who we are as a country and a community, what we owe to each other, and how we can work together to accomplish our shared goals. Our team members maintain passionate curiosity about each other, our world, and the organizations and communities we serve - their cultures, missions, and vision for the future.

We may be expert story tellers, but our first role is as listeners.

Listening with a curious, open mind enables us to better able to understand and advocate for our clients.

The only way to see a better tomorrow is to pair curiosity with a deep commitment to getting the work done.

We hold ourselves to a very high standard and know that trust is not given; it is earned.

Earning and maintaining our client’s trust over time is one of our most important measures of success. We balance having high aspirations and expectations of each other with the humility and grace that allows us to understand that we are not perfect. This allows us to employ robust and thorough quality control processes. We have an understanding on our team that no one “gets in trouble” for making a mistake – only for trying to hide one or for refusing to take responsibility. We see it as our shared responsibility to learn and help our clients and each other.

Time spent at work is an important piece of our overall fulfillment, and we strive to build a workplace that enriches, challenges, and supports every team member. The Aubrey Group believes that being kind to ourselves, our clients, and each other is a big part of how we create the world we want to live in.

Being kind means understanding that other’s lives matter as much as ours.

That belief pushes us to go the extra mile for our clients, do our best to empathize with others who have different experiences and be strong advocates for the communities that benefit from grant-funded programming and projects.
