The highest standards of our company
No matter the role, everyone at Excel™ has a unique story to tell. Here are just some of them:
01
Team-building philosophy
Surround yourself with people that you respect and learn from
Highly aligned
- People who have been stars, then hit a bad patch, get a near term pass because we think they are likely to become stars for us again
- We ask for the same, if the company hits a temporary bad patch, we want people to believe in us and stick with us
- However, unlimited loyalty to a shrinking firm or to an ineffective employee is not effective
Smart work versus hard work
- We expect a team player to show up to every game and from start to finish (meaning showtime commitment)
- However, we don’t measure people by how many evenings, weekends, or long hours they are behind their computer
- Effectiveness is way more important than efficiency. A person who is very efficient but not effective makes no impact on the company
02
Freedom and responsibility
People thrive on being trusted, freedom, and making a difference
Talented people don't need to be micro-managed
- Talented people perform best within clear context, freedom and moderate control
- Talented people act like leaders and don't wait to be told what to do
- Trustworthy people are self-disciplined and don’t need to be watched over like a hawk
- Responsible people will take out the trash and do the right thing when no one is looking
People over process
- Too much process can kill creativity. Creativity without enough process can create chaos
- There has to be a fine balance between process and freedom for innovation to thrive and goals to be achieved
- People are the lifeblood of our business and we heavily rely on your creative intelligence to think before you act
03
Context versus control
Clear context enables others to make great decisions without control
Setting appropriate context
- The best managers figure out how to get great outcomes by setting the appropriate context, rather than by controlling their people
- Control is important in emergencies, during the learning stage, or for the wrong person in a role
- Provide insights and deep understanding to enable sound decision making
People over process
- Too much process can kill creativity. Creativity without enough process can create chaos.
- There has to be a fine balance between process and freedom for innovation to thrive and goals to be achieved
- People are the lifeblood of our business and we heavily rely on your creative intelligence to think before you act
04
Highly aligned, loosely coupled
The goal is to be big and fast and flexible, all at the same time
Highly aligned
- Strategy and goals are clear, specific, and broadly understood
- Team interactions are on strategy and goals rather than tactics
- Requires large investment in management to be transparent and articulate perspectives
Loosely coupled
- Minimal cross-functional meetings except to create alignment on goals and strategy
- Trust between groups on tactics without previewing/approving each one so groups can move fast
- Leaders reaching out proactively for ad-hoc coordination and perspective as appropriate
- Occasional examinations on tactics necessary to increase alignment
