When doing the work, with the organizations we work with, for the causes we fight for, the team must:
be open to ideas, coming from all directions
understand the process isn’t something to simply complete
get as many people bought in along the way as you can
pushback yes, confrontation no
we are here for the cause
in the search for what’s possible, know what is
there is no such thing as the ideal scenario
bring to the table what needs to be brought
the process can be adjusted, it’s okay
no one is the smartest person in the room
there are times to speak, listen, write, and refrain
it’s the people, then the work, don’t worry about externalities
everyone does their part, no need for excuses
there’s talk, and then there’s getting it done
professionalism, maturity, respect, humility
we deliver, end of story
and things change, that’s how it is
