Thanks to Axiom News for taking the time to interview our very own John Miles about workplace democracy here at Integritive. Our company was recently included in the WorldBlu list of most democractic workpaces for 2011 and we are thrilled to share our culture with others, in the hopes that the list of companies on the WorldBlu list will continue to grow and grow.
What happens when a web development and branding company make its mission “to love and have fun?”
According to Integritive founder and CEO John Miles, great things. He’s been running his Asheville, North Carolina company under the banner of happiness at work and the company has grown steadily since its inception in 2001.
Miles says bliss in business is the way of the future to break free from the outdated model of work/life balance. That’s because true happiness isn’t leisure time, but rather when a person becomes deeply engaged in something they love and are good at doing.

What defines mental toughness?
Coach Dave Pietramala of the John’s Hopkins Univeristy Men’s Lacrosse team shares his insight in a recent interview:
“Any endeavor is more mental than physical even in the sport of lacrosse.”
“You must be mentally alert and have the ability to adjust and adapt to changing circumstances”
“Complacency is the enemy.”
“Focus on the things it takes to be champions, not the championship.”
“Believe you will win.”
“Attention to detail is key.”
“Embrace the pressure.”
