Co-Creation: Operating Principles

At the heart of our co-creation process are our operating principles:

Equality: We believe in the power of diversity and inclusivity and that our differences make us stronger. In our co-creation process, we approach each other as equals.

Cooperation: We value cooperation to sustain and strengthen our equality. We believe that by working together, we can achieve more.

Reciprocity: We thrive on reciprocity and loyalty, which help us build trust. We believe that trust is essential to successful co-creation.

Ethics: We are committed to upholding ethical principles in everything we do, from the policies we develop to how we treat our clients.

#principles #policies #ethics

Yes, we co-create

Co-Creation: Essential Policies

To ensure a successful co-creation process, we have established essential policies:

Positive Communication: We value open and honest communication, free from judgement or criticism. We strive to create a safe and supportive space for all involved.

Simplification and Clarity: We believe in keeping things simple. We avoid jargon and complexity and aim to make our co-creation process accessible.

Confidentiality: We maintain strict confidentiality with all information shared during our co-creation process.

Co-Creation: NOT Coaching

Our co-creation approach is different from traditional coaching methods. Instead of a top-down, coach-led approach, we foster a relationship driven by shared knowledge, curiosity, and insights.

Through meaningful engagement and involvement in learning skills, techniques, and strategies, our co-creation process empowers leaders to become critical thinkers and, ultimately, empowered beings.

Co-Creation: Moral Code

Our ethical approach is based on treating clients fairly and being highly selective about the organizations and people we choose to serve.

We refuse to work with sweatshops, arms, oil, mining, banking, or other shady businesses.

Instead, we choose to work with charities, social enterprises, organizations, and committed individuals who share our values and commitment to positive change.

Co-Creation: AI and New Technologies

Our approach values collaboration and recognizes the importance of intellectual property rights. However, we prioritize the shared goal of each project and approach every task with equal passion and dedication.

Rather than limiting cutting-edge technologies to a select few, we strive to make them more widely accessible to create a fair and democratic world.

We believe these tools can significantly improve our work and operation while ensuring sustainability and guaranteeing intellectual property rights.

At the Garden of Values Consulting Agency, we are dedicated to embracing and advancing the global mission of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Our commitment lies in cultivating a harmonious partnership between humanity and the planet, fostering a future where prosperity, inclusivity, and environmental stewardship flourish hand in hand. Through strategic guidance, innovative solutions, and unwavering advocacy, we empower businesses, communities, and individuals to champion each of the 17 SDGs. Together, we are sowing the seeds of transformation, nurturing a world where economic growth resonates with social progress and ecological balance. Join us on this journey towards a brighter, sustainable tomorrow.

Testimonials

I found Francesco to be most helpful in supporting me to sort out my direction with my social impact project. He asked thought-provoking questions that opened up a world of insight to me that eventually got me on track; all the while being sensitive to and perceptive of my specialized needs of working to assist people in poverty to be able to receive long term psychotherapy. He applied his knowledge to fit with an area of work (psychotherapy) with which he was not familiar, and he introduced new concepts that provided a business framework. This was outside my comfort zone. I gained insight into who could be possible funders. We worked out a direction for advertising to create funds. He was consistent and thoughtful in his approach, which was encouraging to me. He helped me to feel supported and enlightened on the journey of finding my way. I cannot thank him enough for all of his helpfulness!

Psychotherapist
Francesco is an incredibly generous and resourceful human being. Full of life and creative ideas, I always have new things to think about that expand my mind after meeting with him. Francesco has a superpower of deep listening and fully seeing you, without you needing to say too many words. He tops that off with thinking along with you on the impact you want to make in this world, which grounds your creativity in some structure and really helps your projects (and confidence) come alive! I’m deeply excited for his clients and everyone who gets the chance of having such a kind and bright guide, counsellor and friend in your life! It’s a real privilege I hope you get the chance to experience too!

I've been getting to know Francesco over a series of group video calls where the only thing that matters is to be truly who you are. Ever since I started this journey I've been impressed by Francesco's clarity of mind. He has a vision and knows how to communicate it. And not only that, he does it from his heart, quite a rare refreshing quality these days… I found his advice so helpful and enlightening!! Like opening a door to a world I knew existed but I'd never dare enter... Now I've stepped in. Just. But all thanks to him. I look forward to the journey.
