Our Nine Principles of Participation
Whatever it is, the way you go on this journey can make all the difference.
Absolute confidentiality
Know that your peers will share their hopes, their dreams, their vulnerability – what you hear stays here. When sharing the essence of others stories, refrain from using their name and specific details, share in a manner that honours their magnificence.
Own your superpowers
We tend to downplay our brilliance.
Be open to freely discussing your strengths.
Contribution
Give authentic and positive feedback to your peers. Be encouraged and feel safe to share your experiences.
Pay it forward
What you learn and what you gain, pass onto others outside of the peer group. Manifest a mindset of helping others with your insights.
Self-accountability
You are the only one who can make the change. Take the power and the energy of the group and use it to your advantage.
Bring your whole self
Bring your vulnerabilities.
Be open to change.
Celebrate your successes.
Mindset of possibility and positivity
‘Whether you think you can or think you can’t, you’re right. '
Manifest positive thinking.
Words create worlds.
Listen
Listen without judgment.
Look for the gifts being shared in the group.
Fail Forward
Speak openly about failures.
Keep perspective - few situations are life and death.
