Life @ Leap
Mutual Respect
We love people who are ‘relentlessly resourceful’. Find your way out. Focus on the possibilities instead of the problems.
Bias for action
We take calculated risks backed by data and information available and encourage fail fast to find the best solutions as soon as possible
Learn & get better
Continuous learning and improvement is the key. We don’t stop learning. We treat feedback as a gift and as an opportunity to get better.
Growth mindset
We operate with a growth mindset and not a mindset of fear or judgement. You are in control of your own ability to learn and improve. We love Resilience.
