- Be respectful, collegial and supportive while engaging in healthy dialogue with candor, integrity and discretion
- Focus on the real issues, address issues at their root causes, and encourage solutions to be developed and implemented at the appropriate level
- Take an institutional-wide view
- Engage in mutual problem solving
- Take informed risks and trust our colleagues as they do so as well
- Know our action points and follow up/act on them in a timely, competent fashion
- Communicate broadly and well
- Be mindful of public perception and know that our work, at times, involves making difficult decisions
- Celebrate our successes, large and small
- Enjoy the work and understand what a privilege it is to lead
