Our Mission

We conduct high quality, impartial workplace assessments, investigations, and hearing officer services to help employers and campuses make well-informed decisions. Our work helps employees get back to work and students get back to class.

TEAMWORK

VM thrives because we recognize the power of teamwork. Every employee plays an essential role in our Firm’s systems, which are purposefully designed to deliver excellence in neutral fact-finding services.

DIVERSITY

We value diversity, equity, and inclusion both in the work we do and the environment we foster at VM. We endeavor to explore, seek to understand, and embrace diverse backgrounds and cross-cultural experiences because we believe it makes us better investigators and adjudicators. Our lives are enhanced and our team is strengthened when we are inclusive and welcome unique perspectives.

EXCELLENCE

We value excellence in everything we do as a Firm. We strive to achieve mastery in our field, engage as thought-leaders, surpass even that which is expected of us, provide unparalleled service to each of our stakeholders, and have fun doing it.

COURAGE

We value courage because it empowers us to act with integrity and purpose. We recognize our clients and stakeholders are often in crisis when we begin our work, which imbues us with great responsibility. We strive to do the right thing even in the face of financial, reputational, or other loss for the Firm.

LEARNOVATION™

We value continuous learning and innovation – what we call “Learnovation” – because we strive to be trailblazers in a cutting-edge profession that is rapidly developing. We are passionate about creating opportunities for all Firm employees to learn, grow, and innovate so that we deliver exceptional performance to all those affected by our work.

FINANCIAL HEALTH

We value the financial health of the Firm because it allows us to pursue the Firm’s Vision, gives our employees an environment to grow, develop, and excel, offers a collective reward for our joint efforts, and allows us to make meaningful contributions to programs in our communities.
