It is increasingly difficult to find companies that are driven by values, but we are different.
Here at Second City, we are driven and guided by our values because they make it easier to:
- Work towards achieving our mission
- Make decisions that align with our vision
- Hire the right staff
- Sign up the right members
Which fundamentally boils down to being able to:
- Do the right things for the right people at the right time
Deciding on our values was easy because we knew exactly as we were living them. Getting them down onto paper in a form that is easily communicated to the whole world was a bit trickier, but once they were broken down into three sub-categories, it was a lot simpler.
Our values hinge on three areas:
- What we want to DO
- What we want to BE
- What we want to HAVE

The final category is traits that we wish to HAVE…
HAVE
- Have fun – this is important but it doesn’t have to be serious
- Have humility – know when you need to ask for help
- Have courage – try new things and celebrate your successes
