Manifesto for Rebellion

The rebellion is not about anarchy. It’s a recipe book for change. We are Team GSD – getting $h!T done. Rebels are ruthlessly committed to delivering results. We are passionate about purpose. We care deeply about people. And we are absolutely sick of time wasting! We hate being part of an industry of bureaucracy. We rebel against the ‘we’ve always done it this way’ status quo. We are sickened by waste. We need to make a difference. It gets us out of bed in the morning. We’re not being rude, but, get on board or get out of our way.

Our ‘manifesto’ is our code –

Align values with purpose

How you think affects how you act. What is the work you are here to do?

Rules are the enemy of accountability

For every rule, there is an exception to the rule. Rules are made to be challenged. Being accountable requires us to do more than follow rules. Because you can doesn’t mean you should.

It’s not kind to be nice

The saccharine culture is the enemy of high performing teams. Let’s make space for honest, candid conversations where kindness rules over ‘nice’.

Triumph over mediocrity

Time to slay the horsemen of mediocrity.

Value difference, because you are U-nique.

There is only one you. The strength of an organisation is in its ability to harness difference. Know what sets you apart from the crowd and let your U-nique talents shine.

Do you trust me?

Is trust earned or is trust given? Trust is the single most important metric in culture.

Stay with pride or leave with dignity

The power of choice. Whether it’s a personal or work relationship, be conscious in the choice you make. Don’t abscond or let yourself be a passive bystander in your own life. If you choose to stay, then stay with pride. If you choose to leave, then leave with dignity.

Affordable pricing

The price of a piece of work will vary depending on the design and prep time involved. Our focus is on delivering value that lasts long after we leave the room.

Don’t let money be a barrier to a conversation.

The hive mind is a powerful tool

We know that life’s challenges are unique and complex for everyone. Let’s connect with the hive mind and seek fresh insights from each other. The rebel salon is a different way of searching for insights to those tricky issues and stuck behaviours. A facilitated networking activity of no more than 4, you will be invited to share any issue or problem that has you feeling stuck. The group will play back what they are hearing, feeling and experiencing which will provide new ways of thinking about the ‘stuckness’ so that you can take control and try something new. Taking inspiration from Theory U by Otto Scharmer.
