Team Manifest
Embracing Local Impact with Global Reach
At TMF we work to accompany and provide the necessary support, tools and services to citizen-led initiatives in the context of sustainable mobility. Though our focus is on fostering local projects, our vision is global and we are integrated into a network of European cooperatives called REScoop.eu. We believe that change comes from small actors working together while taking advantage of a global context.
Which elements characterize our work?
- Democratic and Transparent Ownership: Our members co-own the IT platform, collaboratively deciding on the development direction of our products and services. All innovations are shared with every member.
- Quality over profit: Serving quality and efficient products to our member cooperatives are why we exist. We prioritize our member's success over financial gains.
- Designed by Cooperatives, for Cooperatives: Our technology is developed using the finest tools available, ensuring that our solutions cater specifically to the needs of cooperatives.
Our Dynamic, Collaborative Work Culture:
- International and Diverse: We are a tight-knit team from different countries working mainly remotely. We have different education and backgrounds. However, there is a mutual understanding of teamwork, shared responsibility, and an autonomous way of organizing.
- Trust and Open Dialogue: We cultivate trust, encouraging open discussions to prevent conflicts and create a harmonious work environment.
- Flexible Schedules and Regular Check-Ins: Our weekly virtual meetings foster ongoing collaboration, idea-sharing, and problem-solving.
- In-Person Workshops: We meet at a member's location every four months to work on specific topics.
- Horizontal Hierarchy: Our organizational structure enables us to define and distribute responsibilities among the team members.
- Work process: All team members take responsibility for defining and adapting our work processes and selecting the tools which allow us to work efficiently and align with the nature of our tasks.
