The NorthStar Core values are our compass. Our team is built upon and lives by these values. It is not enough to want to have the values of our compass, but it is vital that each team member live these daily in all aspects of life. Integrity and honesty are the fabric of each of our core values and are weaved through our core, which provides substance for each of our decisions. Doing the right thing every single time is our only option. Our core values are Positive Impact, Team, Growth-Minded, Ownership, and Relentless. As we grow and expand we will ensure that our partners align with our values. This compass represents who we are and who we will continue to be at our core.
Positive Impact
We leave a positive impact in our community, our clients, our partners, and each other. We strive to lead with optimism and evoke positivity in all aspects of our lives, personally and professionally. PEOPLE MATTER MOST. We don’t exist simply to make money or just to close loans, but to have a positive impact in every life we touch.
Team
We are a team. We are a tribe. We win together. We learn together. We hold each other and ourselves accountable. We have respect for one another, ourselves, and the people we interact with. We are dedicated to our goals and trust the process and people within. We are good individually, but WE THRIVE TOGETHER.
Growth- minded
We strive for improvement everyday. Self-growth is essential to our well being. We are driven to improve our daily habits, behaviors, mindset, and processes. GROWING NEVER ENDS. Constant Improvement is what we seek.
Ownership
Ego’s are checked at the door here. We each TAKE OWNERSHIP OF EVERYTHING in our worlds. Every team member must take responsibility for all tasks that impact success - not just the
ones that they directly control. Everyone here is focused on the larger mission. Everyone is responsible when we fail, and no one blames anyone but themselves.
Relentless
We are intense and passionate with everything we do. Everything is urgent. To show or promise no abatement of severity, intensity, strength, or pace is to be relentless. We work harder than everyone else, because there is no option but success. We never stop and we never give up. OUR WHYS ARE TOO IMPORTANT TO QUIT.
