A New Type of Company

Corlett-Wellstone is one of a new breed of emerging "Virtual Companies" with staff and associates connected in the digital world. Nonetheless, all Corlett-Wellstone associates are connected by strong values and a passion for our work. We believe in shaping a better world—through the success of our client organizations and the success of our people. We strive every day to live up to our values in our client work and beyond. We have an unwavering commitment to our independence and an open partnership. We believe in entrepreneurial freedom, respect for the individual, the power of diversity, and a collaborative workplace. We encourage constructive dissent, exchange of ideas, and a quest for quality to expand the art of the possible. Traditional corporate structure is replaced by teams of engaged equals in which ideas are paramount. We are built on the wealth that shared ideas create. We believe that diversity and respect create many advantages: from expansive skills dedicated to new solutions to more satisfying interpersonal relationships.
