How you do it – Expectations for fulfilling your role:  

As a general rule at KingMakers we want people to be: 

• Customer Focus: We keep the customer at the center of everything we do.  
• Passion & Dedication: We are passionate about what we do, employing only smart, honest, dedicated, and results oriented team players.  
• Openness, Honesty & Directness: We embrace a culture of candor and work together towards the right solution whilst being open, honest, and willing to give and receive feedback, judgment-free. We play the ball, not the person.  
• Innovation & Big Thinking: We always look for ways to innovate whilst not losing sight of what's important. The bigger we think, the more we inspire, the better the outcome.

• Speed & Focus: We plan, we strategize, but mostly, we DO. Without doing, there is no progress, we can always change direction but only if we start moving. Fast beats slow.

• Fun: On balance, we believe in having fun whilst working. We maintain perspective as best as we can, and together, we celebrate our successes.
