After hosting 500+ events around the world, perhaps our single most important revelation is the transformational power of a thoughtful set of shared values. Think of these as the commitments we all make to one another!
Actively share what you're working on, a cool breakthrough, or a key question you're exploring today. Ask others in the Collective about theirs – real insights emerge when we openly exchange perspectives!
Ask about the 'why' behind someone's work, listen for that genuine spark of shared interest, and embrace your own uniqueness – this authenticity builds the real trust foundational to our Collective!
Think 'win-win' and 'pay it forward' today. Offering help or sharing resources sparks a cycle of reciprocity that elevates the entire Collective. We all win when contributing to our shared journey towards human flourishing!
We embrace action and iteration. In this rapidly evolving field, momentum is key. We encourage taking initiative, testing ideas, gathering feedback, and adapting quickly. Learning from experience, even from missteps, is crucial for progress.
The strength of an idea determines its value, not the title or tenure of the person suggesting it. We cultivate an environment for open, low-ego debate where diverse perspectives are sought, assumptions are constructively challenged, and the best approaches emerge through collaboration.
Our mission requires unity. We prioritize the overall success and impact of the global movement above individual or chapter silos. This means supporting colleagues across teams, sharing resources openly, taking collective ownership of our goals and reputation, and acting in ways that strengthen the entire organization.
