Organized for Flexibility

In AVS we have a selected staff of specialized resources. Running programs for company building. There are some job openings to joining AVS staff.

In MASTER WiZR we have 90 long term staff we connect as resources to companies

In WiZR X we have freelancers with skills relevant in IT, sales, marketing, design and business advisory services.

Most of our potential co-founders work with us for some time first. It might be 6 months, or a few years. We feel more comfortable with people we know for some time; and it is important for us that the co-founders feel comfortable with us.

The business world of tough negotiations, long lawyers’ bills, and high level of noise is not where we thrive. Our naïve approach of harmony, empathy, trust and collaboration works well for us.

Being positive minded can be a rocket fuel for motivation, co-creation, and dynamic, hard work. Conflicts are a killer of inspiration; and we REALLY try and avoid it.
