W1SDØM has been created to support change agents, investors and advisors by facilitating the flow of capital – be it human, intellectual, social or financial – to more effectively create the next generation of global sustainable enterprise.
At maturity, the business will be owned and governed — and will ultimately reward — the community of change agents we serve. We believe that this orientation significantly increases our chances for success, and best reflects the values of the new marketplace.
We are inspired by — and standing on the shoulders of — great organizations that have come before us. Learning from models as diverse as Open Source and Visa, W.L. Gore and Mondragon, we know that it’s possible to merge collaboration, innovation and profitability.
Our team is made up of serial entrepreneurs, each grounded in a personal commitment to building a more sustainable (and therefore just) world. We are highly accomplished professionally, and have all spent time in a constructive personal practice, as mediators, yogis, endurance athletes, healers, musicians and artists. We have a more open business structure than most companies, and welcome (and compensate) contributions on many levels. We anticipate that people will want to change roles over time, and provide space for people to flourish and evolve as the business and their own lives change.
We believe strongly that information technology — when coupled with the right intention and application — will continue to change the way humans connect, and we’ve got the collective experience to back that belief up with action. We adhere to kai-zen principles that inspire continuous improvement, and have adopted the Agile model of software development as an organizing framework for our entire organization. This means you will experience new facets of our service on a regular basis, and should expect rapid deployment of innovative features and tools, based on the interest and direction we receive from you.
