Values

ALCHEMY studio is comprised of passionate and driven individuals who partner together to serve the informal learning field and are ardent about what we do. We feel it’s important to let you know what we believe as a set of values, what we feel is important, and what we try to do through our work and through the products of our work.

“…leadership must be rooted in who you are and what matters most to you.”

Harry M. Jansen Kraemer Jr., professor at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management

 

These values shape our business, our approach, our resources and the strategies we employ. We relish discussing these with you and seeing what we can do together.
