Summary
Openness as an organisational value is easy to state and hard to practise consistently, and twimbit's CTO, a strategist and two research analysts unpack what it actually looks like day to day. Four dimensions structure their exchange: internal team dynamics, external relationships with customers and vendors, contributions to society and inclusivity, and the way openness shapes the business model itself.
Participants explore openness as a combination of transparency and the willingness to speak candidly, even when doing so means acknowledging uncertainty or difficulty to a team. Openness also emerges as a readiness to respond to change, whether that change concerns a business model, a way of working, or an individual's own assumptions.
Drawing on their experience leading teams through a period of rapid growth, the speakers reflect on how vulnerability and honesty function differently for leaders than for individual contributors, and why building trust within a team often depends on sharing more of the internal reality of running a business than founders might instinctively choose to.
