Values

Successfully serving RAFI clientele is our highest priority and value in seeking excellence.  We do this in concert with other professional associates in an open, engaging, transparent, and collaborative environment - where sharing knowledge, expertise, and wisdom is focused solely on producing successful client assignments.

  • Responsiveness and a sense of urgency is critical to addressing client needs effectively - as are open dialog, clear and straightforward communications;

  • Confidentiality is equally important; we’re committed to protecting clients’ privacy; and,

  • The use of academic research methodologies in tandem with technology and experience to extend scholarship - to uncover state-of-the-art information as a foundation for discussions, evaluations, and decision-making with clients. 

Advancing clients and communities to help make each stronger, more sustainable, effective, economically successful, and healthy, allows RAFI to share in greater opportunities for continuing success and prosperity.  As facilitators, this endeavor links needs, people and resources together, and provides:

 

  • Access to scholarly publications and information to members of RAFI’s communities with reliable resources as tools to expand knowledge, skills, and abilities in a variety of interest areas;

  • Two-way communications and community forums that link members with common interests together to increase access to broader and more diverse realms of discussions, thoughts and ideas; and,

  • As bridge-builders, RAFI promotes connectivity, networking and new partnerships between smaller communities and larger communities when mutual benefits exist. 

RAFI also serves as a community of highly experienced, skilled professionals, each recognized for their scholarly endeavors, creativity, leadership and accomplishments.  Each RAFI member participates in the decision-making process, guidance and directions the firm undertakes.
