You’ll thrive at Forum by:

- Applying structured thinking. You think in terms of scalable processes. You can define a long-term vision based on many moving parts, and build the infrastructure to get there
- Arriving as you are. You show up as your authentic self and celebrate that of others while looking for ways to create an inclusive environment. The best ideas win, regardless of who they come from
