Remember, these behaviors aren't just about individual performance – they're crucial for TGLF's overall success.

By embracing these principles, you contribute to a positive, productive work environment where innovation thrives and we can collectively achieve our mission.

Your commitment to these practices demonstrates your value as a team member and supports TGLF's unique approach to learning and global impact.

  1. Align with organizational decisions: Understand that every task, instruction, and decision is part of a larger strategy. Even if you don't always agree, trust in the process and follow through. If you have concerns, raise them constructively through appropriate channels.
  2. Cultivate organizational belonging: Strive to understand and embody TGLF's mission. Your commitment to the organization's goals is crucial for collective success. Engage actively in team activities and discussions to foster a sense of community.
  3. Contribute constructively: While healthy debate is valuable, ensure your input is aimed at progress, not obstruction. If you disagree with a decision, propose alternative solutions rather than simply opposing.
  4. Seek help proactively: If you're stuck on a task, don't wait until deadlines loom. Reach out early for guidance. This demonstrates initiative and commitment to quality work.
  5. Balance independence and support: While it's important to be self-reliant, don't hesitate to ask for help when truly needed. However, first consult available resources and instructions to show respect for your colleagues' time.
  6. Commit fully, regardless of hours: Whether full-time or part-time, your dedication to quality and the organization's mission should be unwavering. Every contribution matters, regardless of hours worked, whether you are an occasion consultant doing a few hours of work, part-time staff juggling other commitment, or full-time dedicated staff.
  7. Prioritize internal responsiveness: While external relationships are important, remember that your primary commitment is to TGLF. Be as responsive and attentive to internal managers and colleagues as you are to external partners.
  8. Practice meticulous attention to detail: Take thorough notes, track assigned tasks carefully, and double-check your work. If you miss something, acknowledge it and implement systems to improve.
  9. Embrace self-reflection: Regularly examine your own practices and be open to feedback. Continuous improvement is a cornerstone of TGLF's culture.
  10. Own your mistakes: If you make an error or miss a deadline, acknowledge it promptly. Use it as a learning opportunity rather than becoming defensive or trying to cover it up.
  11. Communicate proactively: If you need to be unavailable for any reason, discuss this with your manager in advance. Clear communication prevents misunderstandings and shows respect for the team.
  12. Tackle all assigned tasks: Don't avoid tasks you find challenging or hope they'll be forgotten. Instead, discuss any concerns openly with your manager and work together to find solutions.
