Our Values

Perhaps the most defining characteristic of the people of HCO, and a major point of differentiation in the marketplace, is our commitment to a set of shared values.

Shared values are the essential and enduring tenets of our firm and our employees, and shape our behaviours and performance.
While these values set us apart from the competition, we don’t hold them to gain a competitive advantage. We hold them because they guide personal and professional growth for our employees, our clients, and business associates.

  • Accountability


    We take ownership of our work and responsibility for our actions by consistently honoring commitments to the best of our ability, on time, and without reminders.
  • Positive Culture


    We support a collaborative and innovative environment that empowers employees to excel professionally while balancing a chosen personal life that provides growth, satisfaction and enjoyment.
  • Integrity


    We adhere to a code of principles that ensures that decisions are made and actions are performed with honesty, sincerity and the highest ethical conduct.
  • Commitment to Excellence


    We exceed the expectations of ourselves and our clients by continually improving and enthusiastically committing to do our best.
  • Exceptional Client Relationships


    We build and maintain long-term personal and professional bonds with our clients by proactively attending to their business needs with dedicated service and a sincere interest in their success.
