CULTURE goodr

So you f*@#%ed up. How do you move forward? It’s way too easy to point fingers or give a performative apology that means nothing to anyone. goodr’s own Chief Executive Octopus, Stephen Lease, went on Tina Muir’s Running4Real podcast to talk about how we owned our biggest mistake a few years ago and have used it as an opportunity to learn, evolve, and ultimately become a stronger brand. After all, if the goal is being authentic and people don’t like you, it’s ok. But if the goal is being liked and people don’t like you, you’re f*@#%ed. 

Are your teeth starting to hurt because finding time to go to the dentist is too challenging? At goodr we strive for “work-life integration” because “work-life balance” is fool’s gold. Our goal is to create a culture where you can show up as yourself everywhere and do what you need to do (like go to the dentist…) while excelling in your career.

Black Friday and Cyborg Monday will look different this year. That’s probably a good thing. Listen to what goodr has in store as a brand that is constantly challenging the status quo.

“I’m not your boss, you’re your boss.” This a phrase used quite often at goodr. We all say we don’t want a boss… but it’s harder than you think. We built our own performance and review system based on Drive by Daniel Pink with the goal of no bosses.

Imagine a company where the goal is to be “chill” over “busy.” At goodr we have an initiative called “Chill is the New Busy,” designed to keep people from working more than 40 hours per week-- because you don’t need to hustle for your self-worth at goodr.

Corporate America has brainwashed us all. We’ve realized that our culture is so different that we need to de-program all new hires. That’s why we created a detailed three month onboarding.
