1 A Culture of Wholeness How we Deliver Business, Leadership and Core Results that are Reliable and Trusted By Farmers, Investors, Partners and Suppliers

2 Culture is the soil that supports growth Our mission to bring 1 billion farmers out of poverty requires growing businesses and people. All of the capital in the World, without a high performing culture, will not yield success. We need a culture that nourishes our people, so they can operate in high performing teams, trusted by farmers and investors. Our culture is much deeper than what we do; it brings to life the why we act and the how we work, showing values in action. This is most evident when under pressure.

3 The Walls of Brokenness: Only 3 Causes of All Brokenness Us What people do to each other. What the world does to us – out of anyone’s control. What we do to ourselves. Spectrum of causes: often a combination of them.

4 Creating Wholeness: Finding a Way Through Walls Us Love that expects nothing in return. Compassion. Breaks through circumstance to help people that are trapped. Not fight for justice. Not mediation. Instead, come alongside and suffer with hurting people. Engages so that real empathy is found. Nonviolence. Not optimism. Not education. Instead a discontinuous view of the future that could be. A vision so clear and real that they see it, too.

5 Wholeness Values: Love, Justice and Hope This is the heart of who we are. It is the “why” of what we do. These are most needed in environments of extreme poverty and corruption

6 Wholeness Values: Core These are not merely feelings. They are actions for which we hold each other accountable. Less directly visible, they give passion and energy to what is more evident. Yet, they are also visible through actions, and we expect these actions even when the feelings are not there. “The just man justices.” -Gerard Manley Hopkins

7 Challenge Values: Leadership Circle Trueness includes to self, to your faith, to your family and to your company. Trueness does more than make you honest. It makes you real. Anything worthwhile is difficult, having costs and risks. Courage puts you in game and keeps you there. It is always needed when love is tested. These leadership values were inspired and displayed by the effective work of Rena Menard. Creativity is needed to both imagine a different future and find a way to get there. Creativity is needed to overcome the challenges that are always present.

8 Operational Values: Business Engine We build trueness within our company and with all of our stakeholders by being accountable. There will be complete access and visibility to all that we do. It is not good enough to talk about love, we must actually have sustainable results – impact – that makes a difference. It must be real. Performance is the measurement of business results. It means we do what we say. It includes things like the profit that sustains operations, returns for investors, food safety, and timely payments to our suppliers.

9 9 Values: Unified Whole Interconnected: Because of Love, I have Courage, which creates Impact. Hope fuels my Creativity, enabling Performance despite obstacles Justice builds Trueness, and is shown in Accountability Why we act How we work What we do What do people see? From inside to outside more is visible For example, people don’t know that we love but they see loving actions. We are accountable for the WHY………….. because it is seen in actions.

10 Our Imperative We consider these as the highest bars, and we hold each other accountable to achieve our commitments. Each value is shown in action; we see them as verbs for which people are accountable. It does not matter how you feel; it matters what you do. We believe that it is by living from the heart leading through challenges holding to high performance standards that we will have the maximum impact on the World.
