Values
Values
Solidarity is our guiding principle at Open Collective Foundation. We practice what we preach. Here are some ways that transparency (“Open”) and shared work (“Collective”) are embodied by us, the people you will meet at OCF:
- We set our salaries together and account for responsibility level, as well as debt, disability, disadvantage, dependents, and more - blog post 1 and 2.
- We practice distributed leadership.
- We set our own schedules, to balance care for ourselves and our communities with our accountability and service to collectives.
- We have afund for learning and coaching to support individual growth.
- We use a stewardship model where each person on the team supports one other person in their growth.
- We use a teal organizational model that aims to balance autonomy and collaboration.
- See our docs for more!
We have a unique role to play as steward of a legal, financial, and technical commons—a piece of shared infrastructure—that is resonating deeply with the Solidarity Economy movement. We can build bridges between 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsorship, the open source community (where we have deep roots), mutual aid groups (100+ are hosted by OCF today), and the movement at large.
