The Smart Team

The “Smart Team” is an approach to our everyday work, a core value, and the basis for our business culture. To us, “smart” means more than brainpower. It suggests intellectual and business curiosity, a hunger to know and do more; and a commitment to excellence. It means a high level of currency and the ability to manage and use what we know in a fast-changing environment.

It’s also a workstyle. It means carefully assessing each situation, assignment, or challenge in order to plan, work, and manage at a high level of effectiveness and quality. It’s about strong execution as the outgrowth of truly smart thinking.

Finally the “smart team” is just that...a team. It epitomizes our values of individual initiative and responsibility within a strong team structure.

The StartSmart Commitment sm

Every new engagement brings a learning curve, no matter how talented and experienced the team. To demonstrate the value we place on the client partnership, as well as the critical importance of a fast and efficient start to a strong relationship, Stanton Crenshaw developed the “StartSmart Commitmentsm”.

The Commitment means that the first two weeks of a new client engagement are free of charge. It’s a way of ensuring that we get off to a strong start, and of encouraging our clients to make the fullest commitment to the relationship at the outset.
