Four Hours on a Saturday: Honoring the Client's Sacred Trust
Four Hours on a Saturday: Honoring the Client's Sacred Trust
An American partner once flew across the Pacific to visit our Shenzhen facility on a quiet Saturday.
We barely spent time discussing part numbers or pricing. Instead, we spent four hours discussing philosophy, business ethics, and our shared responsibilities to architectural design.
Three principles from that afternoon still guide Encore Tech today: 1. Honor the client’s trust above all. Trust is slow to earn and instantaneous to lose. 2. Respect every competitor. Every serious player has earned their seat by solving real problems. 3. Build for where the industry is going, not where it stands today.
At Encore Tech, our mission has never been just filling manufacturing capacity. It is ensuring that when a lighting designer anywhere in the world specs our fixtures, they sleep peacefully knowing their reputation is protected.
