Written by Pim de Morree April 17, 2021

It’s time for the third animation on organizations featured in the Corporate Rebels Academy Earlier we released animations on Haier and Buurtzorg. Now, it’s Viisi - the self-managing mortgage advice company.

Viisi was the first financial services company to implement 100% self-organization. They built their reputation on their unique philosophy: ‘People First, Customers Second, Shareholders Last’.
