Our values

Our values are the things we hold dear. They are at the heart of Carbon Swan and they influence how we work.

Authentic relationships

It’s not just about today. It’s about what makes a difference to you long-term. We see ourselves as your partners making things happen through co-creation and shared ownership.

And it’s about you - not our egos. We balance compassion with tough love and non-judgmental honesty.

Integrity

We speak what we believe to be true, and we’ll often say what others won’t. We bring an objective observer’s focus to make a difference to you, to your company and beyond.

We believe in ‘paying forward’: paving the way for future generations. Our pro bono work is testimony to this.

Success

We do what’s really needed: not what’s most profitable to us in the short term. We work hard to get the necessary results in a practical and pragmatic way. And we’ll ask you to work hard too!

Trust

We have faith in people, in their potential and in their abilities. We trust the process, the inner wisdom, proven ability and depth of experience we bring.

We take the time needed to understand the business, or personal challenges, and build relationships that earn trust. This takes us to a deeper level faster and underpins every story we’re privileged to be part of.

If you don’t share these values then we’re probably not the right people for you.
