Introduction

Mastermind is dedicated to integrating mindfulness, authenticity, and sustainability into every aspect of our business. As a small, woman- and LGBT-owned company, we strive to be a living example of our core values: Growth, Compassion, DE&I, Excellence and Leading By Example. These principles guide our commitments to environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and ethical governance.

 

Environmental Commitment

• Accountability: Maintain accountability in decision-making, ensuring actions are aligned with our values and transparent to all team members.

 

Implementation, Monitoring and Reporting

We are committed to actively managing and improving our ESG efforts:

• Continuous Improvement: Regularly review and adapt our ESG strategies based on direct feedback from our team and the effectiveness of our initiatives.

• Internal Reporting: Provide an annual internal review of our ESG actions and progress to team members and contractors, focusing on transparency and continuous improvement without the obligation for public disclosure.
