Clear Measure's Mission Vision Values

Empowered Employees

We provide an environment for employees to be empowered and inspired. We approach each day with optimism and enthusiasm. Our communication is authentic and candid. We promote opportunities for self-achievement.

“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”
— 1 Peter 4:10

Serving Others First

We believe service comes before self. We prioritize the needs of others and demonstrate strong leadership through selfless deeds. Whether a client, vendor, partner, or co-worker, we actively seek to serve their needs first.

“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.”
— Philippians 2:3-4

Building Relationships

Relationships are our principal asset. We foster lasting business and personal relationships with others, earn the trust of our clients, and build meaningful relationships internally, throughout the industry, and in the community. We work intently while having fun.

“So encourage each other and build each other up.”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Excellence

We are the best in our field. We hire and develop our people to pursue the highest levels of professional excellence. By following and defining best practices, we exceed clients' expectations by providing the highest quality.

“So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”
— 1 Corinthians 10:31

Authenticity

We are candid, authentic, respectful, and clear. We accept responsibility and hold each other accountable to a high standard. We speak the truth and do the right thing. We demonstrate integrity.

“Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.”
— Proverbs 27:17

Trusted Partner

We are reliable, trustworthy partners who act in the best interest of our clients, always demonstrating professionalism and persistence. We communicate realistic expectations to our clients and then over-deliver. We’ve built our reputation on delivering business outcomes.

“In this case, moreover, it is required of stewards that one be found faithful and trustworthy.”
— 1 Corinthians 4:2

Clear Measure Statement of Faith

Jeffrey Palermo, the founder and majority shareholder, is a follower of Jesus Christ and founded Clear Measure based on Biblical principles.

The founding of Clear Measure is much like the founding of the United States, acknowledging God as the creator of man and declaring “In God We Trust” on all money.

Employees are not required to take any religious action or belief, but they are not to prevent, hinder, or otherwise oppose those who choose to.

However, everyone should take care to abide by the Biblical principle of “love thy neighbor” and take all actions out of love for the other person.
