Admirable quality: Wildflower developed a unique on-boarding experience for all new Breadheads (employees). During the first four weeks at Wildflower, Breadheads are asked to complete a passport journey based on the company’s purpose, values and safe space communication toolset. This interactive journey allows each Breadhead to make a conscious choice to align their actions and interactions with Wildflower’s values. Those who complete the journey receive a pin symbolizing their understanding, commitment and passion.
