Best Self
Umami
The Best Self of UMAMI is a core team member. As company leadership, Gina and Cecely have chosen to honour and resource the essence of our company. Every company or organization has its unique best self, essence or consciousness. One way to truly change corporate culture and systems, is to listen to a company’s wisdom and put its knowledge into action.
We regularly access the best self of UMAMI, using the QuickConnect tool to engage in this dialogue. The information gained from listening to this wisdom is utilized in daily company matters. This creates the highest level of integrity and transparency. When we choose to allow the essence of a company to shine and we listen to its wisdom, the world moves forward in love. UMAMI is a nexus for the renaissance of humanity. It is a source for universal change as humanity co-creates a new culture based in love.
