Here’s why we are “solutors” and not resources

In one of our last remote company’s reunions with all our staff, a colleague spoke about new people that will soon be part of our team, labeling them “resources”. 

This event has given us the occasion to remind ourselves about how the term “resource”, if used to define a colleague or a cooperator, is the messenger of a potentially bad significance and that it has gradually become an outdated way of thinking for describing the relationship between an individual and its organization that does not reflect in any way our company’s reality.

A resource is the computer we use to work.

A resource is the software we use to develop our projects. 

Easily replaceable, absolutely impersonal, incapable of any choice. 

People, instead, are the true essence of the company, the main characters of the challenge that Thread has decided to accept, despite all the difficulties found in this particular moment we’re living in. 

In particular, in order to transparently face all the changes that are confronted with; we have decided to periodically share the overall economic and financial performance of the company. In this way, we will make everyone more aware about the choices Thread is making and everyone will become an active protagonist of the challenge we are facing.

Last but not least, the name of the company demonstrates it: solutions don’t exist without “solutors”. Solutions can’t be found by themselves alone and aren’t surely found by the company either: solutions are found by the people in the company! 

We genuinely believe in the value of people that, in this period where the majority of companies prefer delaying their decisions or postponing their investment choices, Thread Solutions has confirmed the choice of adding three new “solutors” to the tribe.

We are curious to discover which solutions we’ll find together!
