At Sauce, we don’t just live our values. It’s a vibe you can feel the moment you walk through our doors, a pulse that throbs in all our veins, and a spark that lights up every space. But the real magic happens in our boardrooms, where each value takes on a life of its own. We’re opening our doors and inviting you to step inside: see, feel and experience how we bring our values to life.
Bringing our values to life:
Collaboration Boardroom
Collaboration at Sauce goes beyond just teamwork; it’s a mindset that permeates everything we do. We believe that the best ideas are born when diverse perspectives collide in the best way possible. Our open-door policy isn’t just about physical spaces – it’s about fostering an environment where everyone’s voice is heard, and every idea is valued.
That’s the brief that went out to one of our amazing art directors, Sonwabo Valashiya, tasked with capturing the essence of collaboration. Sonwabo didn’t just create a piece of art, he crafted a visual narrative that embodies the spirit of teamwork. His mural, now a centrepiece in the Collaboration boardroom, is a vibrant testament to the power of “we” over “me”. The mural isn’t just about working alongside each other; it’s about celebrating the magic that happens when diverse minds come together to create something extraordinary.
Bringing our values to life:
Curiosity Boardroom
Curiosity is the spark that ignites our creativity. At Sauce, we’re not just thinkers; we question, challenge and innovate. We dive into projects with a hunger to discover, dissect, and deliver beyond what’s expected. This value isn’t just about asking “What if?” – it’s about asking “What’s next?”. It’s our curiosity that pushes us to learn from every campaign, adapt to new trends, and reinvent our approach to keep our work fresh, relevant, and always one step ahead.
Could all that be captured in one glance? That was the challenge Tyler Shibambo, one of our brilliant art directors, eagerly took on. Drawing inspiration from technological innovations across the decades, Tyler’s artwork for the Curiosity boardroom is more than just eye candy, it’s a portal to discovery. Through layers of evolving ideas and futuristic elements, his piece embodies the endless pursuit of new perspectives and uncharted possibilities. And here’s the twist: Tyler integrated a QR code into the artwork, which allows us to explore our curiosity even further; collaborate on new ideas; and express our passion for creativity. But most importantly, it is an invitation to constantly keep asking, “What’s next?”.
Our values: The secret Sauce behind our success
Our values aren’t just words on a wall; they’re the building blocks for everything we do. Our commitment to living our values leads the way, driving us to think big, dig deep, and push the boundaries of creativity. Here’s how we mix them all together:
We are Curious
We’re explorers at heart, constantly seeking out new ideas, fresh perspectives, and untapped possibilities. We’re not satisfied with the status quo. Our curiosity always drives us to ask “What’s next?”. With 35 years of expertise under our belt, it’s the one question that keeps us moving forward, exploring new possibilities and reaching for the next big thing.
We are Creative
Our curiosity feeds our creative spirit. Creativity is at the heart of everything we do at Sauce, and to be creative we need to stay curious. We don’t just colour outside the lines; we redraw them. Our approach goes beyond the brief, blending strategy and imagination to create work that not only meets expectations but exceeds them.
We are Passionate
Our creativity is fuelled by our passion. It drives us out of bed in the morning and keeps us going late into the night. Our passion fuels our commitment to excellence, turning every setback into a stepping stone and every success into a launchpad for what’s next.
We have Integrity
Passion without integrity is just self-serving, and we’re all about the collective. That’s why we do what we say and say what we do – always. Integrity is our compass. It guides every decision, conversation, and commitment we make. Our integrity has earned us a reputation that speaks for itself. When we commit, we follow through. Every time.
We are Disciplined
Integrity goes hand in hand with discipline, that’s why we follow process. We believe that great ideas need structure and commitment to come to life. It’s about accountability, consistency, and delivering quality work every single time. By staying disciplined, we ensure that every project, big or small, gets the attention, detail, and dedication it deserves.
We Collaborate
Our curiosity, creativity, passion, integrity and discipline make us great collaborators. We believe in the power of “we” over “me.” Great things happen when minds come together, and at Sauce, collaboration isn’t just about working alongside each other – it’s about bringing out the best in each other.
Stay tuned as we continue to bring all our values to life. In the meantime, explore the incredible work inspired by our values!
