Managing Director
What’s
it like working at CoLab?
At
CoLab we seek to blend the nimbleness and autonomy of a small team with the
influence and opportunities afforded to a national network.
Here’s
a bit about us:
  • We
    are bold, ambitious, and optimistic. Our vision is for an economy that
    makes environmental sustainability, human well-being, and business success
    synonymous.
  • We
    care about what we each accomplish, not where we work from or how many
    hours we put in.
  • We
    want working together to feel effortless and the ways we work together to
    be intuitive.
  • We
    embrace innovation: we’re willing to take risks, we know we’ll make
    mistakes along the way, and we push ourselves to apply what we learn each
    time. At CoLab, it’s okay to fail.
  • We
    have fun, enjoy working together, and laugh often.
  • We’re
    not satisfied with the status quo: we don’t think “because that’s how it’s
    always been done” justifies a course of action. We challenge each other,
    think critically, and strive for objective decision-making.
