Nothing can explain better what life at Agile Actors looks like than our motto:
“We practice improvement through work, work through improvement, one sprint at a time!”.
Continuous development is our primary priority because we strongly believe in empowering tech professionals to reach their maximum potential to extend and enhance our client’s development and engineering competencies. To do so, we are constantly focusing on enhancing our methods based on how modern tech professionals work and interact with people and the world around them. How they engage in successful project execution. How they cooperate and coexist in a place where there’s excitement, fun, transparency and a sense of accomplishment.
Over the years, we realised one very important thing: continuous development is an ever-evolving, non-linear process which can be easily explained if you follow its flow. Thus, we created a set of values that define our culture of continuous development and can help tech professionals grow on a professional and personal level.
Our values that are shared across our organization are:
- Having a purpose
Purpose is what drives us. It’s our source of pride, enthusiasm and fulfilment. It drives our effort to continuously improve. It guides our development path and growth. Having a purpose leads to self-awareness, self-discipline, motivation and the feeling that we make a meaningful impact.
Tech professionals are the product owners of the most important product: themselves. They own the road map of their continuous evolution. This is their purpose.
2. Being Adventurous
We do not fear the new. We learn new things, we experiment. We embrace change, and we are not afraid to disrupt our comfort zone. We challenge ourselves to create new ideas, to work with new practices, to generate new revenue streams. We are passionate about what we do, and most of all we are curious.
3. Being Agile
Being Agile is about inspecting and adapting. We inspect our environment and we adapt to it. We avoid just following practices. We understand and realise the need, and we act accordingly. We are flexible and resilient. We don’t wait to be told what to do — we act. We move forward in small steps. We are “results and quality” oriented.
4. Respect and Empower
We strongly believe that to achieve a purpose everyone needs respect and empowerment.
That’s why we respect people, diverse cultures and backgrounds. Respect is about empathy, professionalism and caring. We support people to make them stronger and more confident. To bring out their best. We support our colleagues and work for the success of the team. We value autonomy and collaboration. We learn to influence and inspire.
5. Authenticity and Trust
Authenticity and Trust are fundamental to our culture and mindset. Because authenticity is about honesty, transparency, accountability and commitment, while trust is the base of our environment.
We are not afraid to share our weaknesses, fears or concerns with our colleagues and partners. We invite them to practice the same, thus creating a trustful environment, which serves as a vehicle for solid and coherent teams, and as a driver for self-awareness and personal development.
6. Evolving through our clients
We are focused on best serving the needs of our clients by forming cross-functional teams of technology professionals and delivering state-of-the-art, high-quality software and data engineering services. We continuously develop and evolve our competencies to best meet the business needs of our clients in a technology environment where change is the new status quo.
We are constantly on the lookout for professionals who share the same vision and values. See our current openings at Agile Actors and join our ecosystem that focuses on the ambitious and talented tech professionals and helps them pursue their career goals.
