What does Kite Hill’s value of balance mean to you? What are you doing in your day-to-day to embody this value? The value of balance means that Kite Hill cares about me beyond what I can do for them, which is rare. While prioritizing work responsibilities is vital, it’s also important that companies acknowledge how valuable personal maintenance is for its team members. I embody this value in my day-to-day life by taking a brief step away from work when I need to decompress and regroup. This creates a positive cycle because when you feel stable outside of work, you are more productive during work!
