Our Core Values
Everything we do as a company is centered around our Core Values!
At Hummingbird, we understand that the only way to truly help people is to comprehend their feelings fully. To do this we must be able to connect with them. There are five key elements of Emotional Intelligence: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills.
Community Engagement is a fast-paced ball game. WE must be quick-witted and light-footed to succeed; Nimbleness. Meeting the needs of the communities we engage with must be done in a way that’s tailored to the group, relatable, and easy to digest.
Accountability means showing up and setting out to accomplish the things we said we’d do. It’s about taking personal responsibility for our work. Hummingbird fosters a Culture of Accountability!
Community is something that we build and create internally and externally. As community engagement experts we need to instill a sense of community from within our company and culture to be most effective in the engagement that we facilitate and deliver in communities. Community is about a sense of belonging, being in solidarity with each other, and evoking fellowship. We are all active participants in building community from within and outward.
Proven Process
A unique value-add in working with Hummingbird is that we use our Engagement Nest™ process to create Community Engagement Plans. This approach consists of a dense framework to protect progress, bind success and provide elasticity, enabling the nest to enlarge and reshape with changing needs and priorities.
“The top focus for community engagement should be to put oneself in the community’s shoes. You have to understand what the communication style needs are and remain nimble – like a hummingbird.”
