Evidence - we educate with the best possible evidence.
Equality - we balance the rights and needs of all people. Empathy - we seek to understand and hold space without judgment. Empower - we inform and support individual choices. Excellence - we keep learning and strive for growth. Ethics - we work with integrity and social justice in mind. |
Collaborate for solutions
|
we work together with the other person for solutions; problem solving, and maintaining connection through reciprocity and restoration. Rupture and repair is necessary.
|
Accept what is
|
we accept the person in front of us as they are, accept ourselves as we are in the moment and accept the situation even if we want to move forward
|
Learn and grow together
|
whilst we sit in acceptance, we strive to continue learning in pursuit of growth and ultimately excellence without perfection.
|
Meet and balance needs
|
we consciously balance our needs and goals with those of the other person and between short-term and long-term; striving to balance our choices and meet their needs without sacrificing our own.
|
Empathise always
|
we seek to deeply understand and hold space for the other person's unique perspective, stage of development, support needs, feelings, reactions and thought processes. We may not be capable of empathy in the moment, but it is always possible in time.
|
Respond with compassion
|
we seek to respond rather than react, using compassion as our driving force in our interactions and for ourselves when we act in a way that creates a need for restoration and repair.
