“None of us is as smart as all of us.” - Ken Blanchard

• Agree

• Disagree

Clear and aligned purpose

Everyone understands our vision, purpose and goals and is focused on achieving them.

Clear roles and responsibilities

We each know how to contribute to those goals, and understand how all of our pieces fit together. We leverage our individual strengths to achieve our goals.

Build trust through relationships

We encourage everyone to bring their whole selves to work. We know and care for each other. We show empathy and compassion. We act in the best interest of the team. We hold and trust each other to be accountable.

Communicate frequently and effectively

We keep each other informed, share information, provide updates, provide context, and let each other know if something has changed. We’ve also figured out the best channels for communication. 

Collaborate often

We truly believe in the power of group genius, leverage each other’s strengths, and partner effectively – all with the larger goals and purpose in mind. We give each other feedback with the intention of helping each other show up at our best, deliver our best, and be successful together.

Appreciate & encourage diverse thinking

We see differing perspectives and opinions as an opportunity for new ways of thinking and eliciting new ideas. Different opinions help us expand our thinking, develop a wider array of solutions/ideas, learn and improve our output.

Manage conflict constructively

We don’t always agree, but we can talk with each other when that happens. We view conflict as an opportunity to learn.

Learn and adapt

We enjoy exploring new ideas, we’re curious, ask questions and challenge each other’s thinking. We’re able to try, fail, learn, adapt and adjust our course as we bring in new information.

Celebrate success and show appreciation

We congratulate and thank each other for the great work people are doing. We also show appreciation for the individual people on the team.

Measure outcomes and success

We can tie back our work to our purpose and goals in a way that allows us to feel, see and understand the broader impact we make.
