We aspire to creative excellence in everything we do, and we nurture this in everyone we work with.
At Mandala, we are crafting a new way of living, being, playing, disconnecting and reconnecting – through the integrity of our people and the creativity we nurture in them; through the design-driven, taste-making places we create; and through our intention to do business with purpose, integrity, and wholehearted respect for this planet we call home.
with each other
with ideas
with their passions
with their communities
and within themselves
We obsess about the experience and satisfaction of our members and our community. They are our world.
The decisions we make are always in service of improving and enhancing our community experience… building connection.
We exist to enable and empower the purpose of every member of our community, however they themselves define it.
The best compliment we can receive is to be told we have exceeded a member’s expectation
The Mandala Team is our most critical source of competitive advantage. and we support each other above all else.
Across our places and spaces, we strive to make sure all interactions are rooted in egalitarianism and mutual respect.
We believe the future of hospitality for our forward-thinking patrons is equality, not subservience. As such, we encourage all our team members to be themselves, and to find the joy in each encounter, participating in conversations, making introductions, sharing anecdotes and getting to know members. More informally, and ultimately more personally.
We are energised when we strive for better, and fully embrace the learning process that goes hand-in-hand with trying something new or different. It’s how change happens.
We have a perpetual thirst for constant improvement, catalysed by constant innovation.
Mandala commits to being at the forefront of sustainable and neutral operations no matter where we operate. Singapore city club offsets, sustainable building techniques in Japan and large scale forestry and sea clean up programmes in Indonesia.
We embrace egalitarian hospitality, equal opportunities across our ranks and organisation.
We support local communities wherever we operate, and empower our incredibly powerful membership community to enhance our ability to support those that need it most, from educational based initiatives through to crisis reaction.
We celebrate success, and are not afraid to push boundaries. We encourage this spirit across our team and community alike.
Since day one, we are a collective of entrepreneurial visionaries, with a healthy balance of head and heart.
Throughout the organisation, we embrace and embody this sense of entrepreneurial spirit; of responsibility, accountability and ownership.
We go beyond what’s required. We pay attention to details others and embed industry-leading operational standards.
Our zero-tolerance compromise in our business extends to our corporate behaviour and compliance.
We work for our investors to achieve collective, long-term success.
