Shaping Our Future Together: Our Mission, Vision, and Values
At the core of every transformative journey lies a clear sense of direction—a mission that guides our steps, a vision that illuminates our path, and values that anchor us in integrity and purpose. These fundamental principles are not just words on a page; they are the heartbeat of our organization, driving every decision we make and every action we take.
Our Mission
is our commitment to action, the purpose that propels us forward. It's what we wake up every day to do, pushing boundaries and making a tangible difference in the lives we touch.
Our Vision
is our north star, the aspirational future we strive to create. It's a reflection of our highest ideals and our ambition to lead by example, inspiring others to join us in making that vision a reality.
Our Values
are the bedrock of our culture, the principles that define who we are and how we interact with the world. They shape our approach to challenges, our relationships with partners and communities, and our unwavering dedication to achieving our goals.
Our Mission
As a non-profit dedicated to economic development, our mission is to harness the talents of the brightest minds to drive social and economic development across the region we serve. By “empowering talent to build stronger communities”, we will continue leading the charge in community-centered innovation and entrepreneurship.
Our Vision
We see a future where mid-sized towns across the country have models like enFocus driving development and retaining talent. Because we have seen the value of this organization in our community, and its replicability as we expand to Elkhart, Indiana and Niles, Michigan, we have a vision that enFocus will be a leader in national talent attraction and retention.
Our vision extends beyond immediate solutions; we aim to inspire a movement of change-makers, empowered by technology and driven by a shared commitment to improve lives. With a foundation built on our core values of collaboration, integrity, and excellence, we strive to be a catalyst for transformation, where innovative ideas come to life and make a real difference.
Our Values
Our eight values not only guide the way we conduct work within our organization, it dictates which projects we take on with our Sponsor Organizations. We would never accept and scope a project that does not align with our values.
