As a 100% employee-owned firm, Salas O'Brien has employee ownership at its core. But what does ownership mean here?

We answer that question with Salas O'Brien's "Ownership Values." These values describe, under the headings of "Expect Leadership, Expect Results, Expect Relationships," what it means to be an owner of Salas O'Brien. And though we're not perfect, we hold ourselves accountable to these values and believe they are the reason clients can "expect a difference" from us.

Here's a brief summary of the Ownership Values values and how they influence life at Salas O'Brien. If you're interested, we'd love for you to read the whole thing and let us know what you think.
