Our culture fosters companywide learning, personal and professional growth, and respect. We encourage employees to explore new paths and become creative problem-solvers. We expand roles, create new challenges, and provide inspiration with thought leaders and formal training for all. By facilitating 360-degree input in all staff meetings, business priorities, and team activities, we create connections with one another and leverage strengths while balancing opportunities for improvement. We offer flexible WFH schedules and encourage work-life balance.

Curriculum Associates believes that successful companies must have a higher purpose and promote a culture in which employees are driven by that purpose to succeed. We have always been dedicated to employee-focused benefits, including flexible schedules and caregiving support. This has been even more necessary since the start of the pandemic, with managers and teams working together to determine the schedules that work best for their unique needs, even when it means temporarily reducing hours.

At Ivantis, our culture revolves around developing our people as business leaders and healthy individuals. We regularly sponsor professional development programs and work hard to maintain an atmosphere of entrepreneurship among our team members. Health is, ultimately, our mission, so it makes perfect sense for us to also focus on employees' healthy habits while we strive to improve the lives of our patients. We also serve the needs of others by sponsoring medical missions to underserved areas of the world to share our products and technologies with communities that would not otherwise have access to treatment.

We are a nimble, effective team. We understand that having lots of resources can be an advantage, but it can also make you immobile. Meanwhile, movement, endurance, individual intelligence, knowledge, and courage allow underdogs to do the impossible. We value each individual's unique capabilities, life experiences, and contributions, but we value work ethic and character above all else. The willingness to try harder than anyone else sets winners apart.

From the start of remote working, we've made sure employees feel informed, connected, and supported. We’re sharing best practices with our managers about virtual communication and conducting monthly companywide surveys. We’ve organized creative Zoom meetings that include dance parties, a speaker series, and scavenger hunts. We also launched LinkedIn Learning so employees can build additional skills. Our employees are feeling positive about their work experience: Ninety percent say they’re just as (or more!) productive as when they were in the office.
