We create opportunities for networking, knowledge sharing and collaboration. We build relationships and seize opportunities to work together with others who share a common purpose.		We continuously improve ourselves and what we do. We seek out new and better ways of doing things. We learn from others and embrace change. We see obstacles as opportunities and treat failure as a learning opportunity.
