Courage

We remain authentic and brave in our decisions and actions

Curiosity

flexibility with responsibility

At CPI, we believe that an indispensable part of doing great work is having the ability to take care of ourselves and our loved ones.

We encourage staff to take paid time off/annual leave throughout the year, as well as an extended leave of absence when major life circumstances call for it.

We also believe that we need to be aligned on the what of our work but can be flexible in how this work is accomplished in any given week.

We describe this idea as “flexibility with responsibility”.

Our commitment to diversity, equity & inclusion

To advance our purpose of reimagining government so that it works for everyone, CPI seeks to attract and support a diversity of backgrounds, experience, talent, and thought. We commit to struggling with the conflicts inherent to what we do, openly and transparently, with the hopes that by doing so, the solutions can have a ripple effect far beyond our organisation’s boundaries. In reimagining government, we must commit to centring historically underrepresented communities’ voices in all of the work that we do.

Diversity enriches our commitment to a more just society and enhances our ability to enact change so governments can help societies to better respond to complex challenges.
