  • Integrity  — You willingly receive and give feedback; you are open about what’s working and what needs to improve; you admit mistakes openly and share learnings widely.
  • Judgment — You are intentional when making decisions, with an aim toward long-term solutions rather than quick fixes; you rely on data, training, and collaboration with others to inform your decisions.
  • Purpose— You exhibit courage in searching for the truth; you are willing to risk personal failure to help, or challenge the status quo, in the pursuit of excellence.
  • Resilience — You thrive in rapidly changing circumstances; you adapt to change; you know when to include or escalate to others; you embrace a hard challenge.
  • Selflessness — You are considerate when searching for new and different ideas; you seek what’s best for the team and organization; you discern how your actions could affect others; you seek to make those around you successful.
