Vision, Mission and Values

Principles

=mc is based on a core set of principles. These principles have remained the constant for 30 years. They inform almost every aspect of the way we work – from our approach to CSR to our client journey process and our hiring policy. All of these principles have practical action attached to them – whether it’s raising money to support Comic Relief or wearing a jumper before turning up the heating to reduce energy use.

Our principles are outlined below.

Our vision

Our vision is to be the first choice of ethically-driven organisations worldwide for management consultancy, fundraising consultancy and learning and development.

That work will consistently produce legendary results for our customers and will help dramatically improve their ability to achieve their mission. Commitment to our customers is part of our commitment to issues of social justice. A passion for and ability to deliver results is part of our core philosophy and competence as an organisation.

We will be at the centre of a network of partners and individuals moving this vision forward.
