Armor Core Values

1. Act Like an Owner
We empower our Heroes to Act Like Owners.
Owners are fully invested in the vision of the business.
Owners make decisions with the whole organization in mind and take personal
responsibility for results and commitments.
Owners put employees and customers first to achieve or exceed goals and
requirements.
Owners are entrepreneurial and generate buzz and excitement around the
organization and culture.
Owners eliminate roadblocks.

2. Amplify Others
We want our Heroes to take ownership of their personal & professional development
and give back to others.
To lead, you must first know, then you can inspire, mentor and coach.
You should ask for and use feedback to improve performance.
Embrace the value of continuous learning to achieve mastery in what you do.
Seek and acquire new competencies, work methods, ideas, and information.
See failure as an opportunity to learn from past results and continue to learn and
grow.

3. Bad News First
We know that shit happens.
Things do not go as planned, but we act quickly and problem-solve to address
issues.
Our communication style is transparent, frequent, and collaborative, whether working
with a customer challenge or informing our Heroes of changes.
Armor is committed to providing a risk-free, safe environment for “bad news”
communication.
At the end of the day, how we handle the situation is what our Heroes and customers
will remember.

4. Be a Good Human
Every Hero brings unique experiences and skill to the company.
Armor values differences and believes that being anything but a Good Human
darkens the journey.
Be authentic, inclusive, humble, honest, trustworthy, and kind.
Help us make a difference in the world - life is short, and we don’t have much time to
make a positive impact.

5. Embrace Change
Technology evolves rapidly, so we must stay ahead and remain flexible to evolve
with it.
“Embracing Change” adds resilience to executing and moving forward through the
change.
The answers might not always be clear, but we will iterate through them and trust
each other to find solutions.
The only thing that won’t change is that there will always be change.

6. Take Risks
We encourage risk-taking as we believe it drives creativity and innovation.
We want our Heroes to be creative, challenge the status quo, and never give up
solving business problems, simplifying ways of working and improving results
together.
Propose and implement new and simple ways of thinking about methods, processes,
and technologies.
Find ways to turn ideas into reality.
Experiment with new concepts, methodologies, and procedures.
Do not be afraid to fail, for Yoda once said, “the greatest teacher failure is.”
