Values
Opera Ballet Vlaanderen, we are all part of it, every single day. But who exactly are we? Or better, who do we want to be? Since 2019, we have undertaken a process of exploring the core values of OBV, through workshops and dialogue. From this, three basic values emerged that connect us. They express what we stand for and what we want for the future of this beautiful place. So let it be known…
INSPIRING
Empowering one another and others to be innovative and creative. Being proud to make a unique contribution that allows our colleagues and OBV to grow, and so, together, to bring opera and ballet to new heights. Inspiration is what makes OBV an exciting and powerful story.
PIONEERING
Exploring new pathways. Critically pushing the boundaries of our artistic domains. Daring to be different from the established houses. Our goal as an organisation is to become stronger and better and to constantly pursue growth, development and innovation.
COMING TOGETHER
Connecting with each other and our environment by showing solidarity and caring. Active listening and transparent communication as a step towards sustainable collaboration. Our strength lies in diversity and a multiplicity of voices. Tradition and innovation are the starting points for offering opera and dance in a spirit of generosity, and for sparking enthusiasm for art and artistic experience.
