OUR STORY
Many ambitious and quality workers in Indonesia feel discouraged and pessimistic about their career prospects.
Indonesia is more than just a developing country in Southeast Asia. It is a country that is committed to its growth and well-being, reflected by the work ethic and culture of its people to create well-led lives. Even so, opportunities for advancement remain inaccessible to the general population. Talented and forward-thinking individuals feel limited to working a "lifeless" corporate job with financial stability or choosing the risky path of being a freelancer.
We believe that in order to grow, people should be given the opportunity to choose.
Our platform is here to facilitate easy access to endless opportunities for people to choose from. By allowing people to utilize their talents, we are reframing the narrative that financial growth is only for the lucky few. Being able to utilize one's talents to afford living on one's terms is the originality we aim to encourage.
We thought to ourselves, "things have got to be better around here if we want a better future."
The idea for Counsely was formulated back in 2021 when we, the founders, found a disconnect in the relationship between consultants and their clients. Both sides were plagued with plenty of mistrust and were victims of unclear business practices and misconduct. This (legitimate) skepticism created reluctance for people to want to branch out and seek the right advice to make informed decisions instrumental to their well-being. Counsely has since become a big part of who we are.

Our Company Culture
SOLIDARITY
We encourage mindfulness that goes beyond cultural, religious, and social boundaries. Of course, any forms of discriminative behavior and language is not something we tolerate.
TEAM WORK
We don't like to perpetuate toxic work culture hidden behind claims of being a family. We see our coworkers as our team, wanting to achieve the same goal; just different ways about it.
EFFICIENCY
We do not make impossible demands or expect our team to work 24/7. Instead, we offer flexibility and a sense of autonomy to encourage efficient work behavior.
ACCOUNTABILITY
We do not expect our team to know everything. We understand that we are all students and teachers. We only require a sense of responsibility to want to do better.
RESOURCEFUL
We are realistic in acknowledging that we are a startup. Therefore, our resources are continuously growing and will require careful management. We encourage lean business practices.
