At Stride, our job is to deliver custom software. But we exist because we love collaborating with each other.
For a company of such thoughtful and hopeful people, measures of business value and professional success are necessary but not sufficient descriptions of the future we want to build together. Even as we work to help our clients achieve their aims and improve working conditions, we aspire to make a positive impact on society and help build a brighter future for our planet and for generations to come.
This is an an audacious vision for a small company particularly in an industry as privileged and complicit as technology. To be candid, not one I was ready to champion before my experience working with Striders.
So how do we translate this into our goals and day to day actions so that we get closer to achieving our purpose?
