Balean Values

The values we believe in

Balean is a purpose organisation that wants to make a positive impact. Everything we do to make this positive impact, should be guided by our 5 core values: Sustainability - Collaboration - Open mind - Honesty & Transparency - Trust.

What each of these values means to us is explained below.

Sustainability

In our organization, sustainability is our guidance and moral compass in everything we do and decisions we make. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 13 (climate action), 14 (life below water) and 17 (partnerships for the goals) are central for Balean, where we help partners achieve their own sustainability ambition.

Collaboration

In our global vision, collaboration outperforms competition for a positive impact. We search actively for mutually beneficial collaboration across disciplines. We continuously improve and embrace long term partnerships.

Honesty and transparency

We are transparent and honest about what we do and how we do it, in everything we do. Collaborative learning is central in public discussions both within Balean as towards 3rd parties.

Open mind

To make impact we need new ideas and perspectives. For our mission, anyone can contribute from their perspective, where we respect each others views and opinions. Diversity in background, culture, gender, or other any other factor enhances creativity and solutions.

Trust

Authenticity, empathy, and reliability is the basis for Balean. Everyone can make mistakes and we assume positive intent in our mission to a positive impact. Help each other in fixing things and learn collaboratively to improve together.
