Columbus' Values

Do you share our values?

Our values are Stay Curious, Build Trust, Collaborate, and Deliver Customer Success. They were carefully selected by the people we trust the most: our colleagues all over the globe! Because of this, our values represent both how we act today, and how we want to act and work together in the future. 

By working on living our values, we create the foundation for a place people want to be a part of and collaborate with as a customer or partner. Hopefully you will be able to see this! We strongly believe that happy colleagues deliver better results for our customers. Our values provide guidance in that direction, our guiding stars.

How do we live by our values?
