Fundamental #11: Always Ask Why

For the better part of two years, our Federation team has been making a deliberate effort to define what drives our work and how we do it. The four core values of Community, Inclusivity, Learning, and Integrity rose to the top. The next step was to identify a list of fundamentals: actionable, daily core behaviors that bring our core values to life and define our culture. Each week, we make a point to focus on practicing a different fundamental, and I kick off that effort by sharing my thoughts on each one at the beginning of each week. Here are my thoughts for our eleventh week:

Fundamental #11: ALWAYS ASK WHY.

Start With Why is an excellent book on how to make work inspiring.

But is started with a short YouTube video. Instead of writing any more, I’ll ask you to find a few minutes today or tomorrow to watch the video and feel free to let me know what you think.

See here for Shep’s comments on all the fundamentals so far.
