The Give Big List
At Yeske Buie, we’re all about living our core values. To us, our core values serve as a guide for how we serve Clients, make business decisions, and interact with each other and our community – they’re not just meaningless words into an infographic never to be seen again (though we do have an infographic!).
Live Big: We believe everyone is entitled to a limitless vision for their life.
One of our founding principles and beloved taglines is Live Big, and another that has been around for over a decade is Give Big. The other four values – Client Big, Think Big, Learn Big, and Be Big – have always been engrained in our culture, and they were explicitly defined as core values in 2015.
Those who have been with Yeske Buie for some time likely recall (or even contributed to) the Live Big list published in 2009, a collection of ideas to Live Big without spending much, if any, money. It’s consistently one of our most read posts on our website.
Give Big: We believe sharing unconditionally is the path to abundance
Just like the Live Big list has over 100 ways to Live Big, there are countless ways that we can Give Big. We thought it would be empowering to start a list of different ways that we Give Big to our Clients, to each other, to our family and friends, to our strategic partners, to strangers, and more.
