We believe that all human beings regardless of race, color, creed, religious, or political beliefs have inherent worth and are deserving of respect. We believe that the multi-disciplinary, creative and collaborative community at Jake’s is unique and meaningful, and that to sustain it, we need to cultivate an environment of trust where people feel comfortable to ask questions and exchange ideas. We encourage our creative community members to use the Four Way Test when faced with difficult decisions: Is it the truth? Is it fair? Is it beneficial to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships?  We believe in a clean, organized, safe, and visually inspiring environment.  We believe in decency and the avoidance of foul or coarse language.  We believe in using our natural resources wisely and to be good stewards of our environment. We believe that we each have a responsibility to cultivate the best relationships possible with our coworkers, customers, owners, agents, suppliers and community. We believe that different people bring different gifts and perspectives to the team and that a great team is founded on a variety of gifts. We believe that competence is an essential means of sustaining our values in a competitive marketplace.  We believe that we can all be financially successful while behaving in a socially responsible, environmentally sensitive and respectful manner.  We believe that we have an individual and collective accountability to the values, mission and destiny of the  Jake’s Creative Community.
