Manifesto

Value the emotional and mental state of people with higher significance than targets.

A friendly tone and collaborative decision making needs to be encouraged over silos and authoritative decision making based on rank

Diversity & inclusiveness needs to be promoted at all levels and voices of racism & exclusion needs to be rooted out immediately.

Welcome new ideas and people and value experienced in the team.
