  2. DSAW Leadership Norms • DSAW Team Leadership Norms • Everyone does and should bring enthusiasm to the work we do. •  We must all be open-minded. Everyone must have the opportunity to share their opinion. • If we have a standstill/non-agreement, we move to the standard of “What is best for DSAW and the people we serve?” • When an individual is an outlier, he/she needs to go into an active listening mode; do not “hunker down.” •  When disagreeing or challenging, don’t make it personal; keep it professional. • After all shared opinions and engaged in discussion, the final decision is made by the majority (or where required the supermajority) of the Board. •  No one can have a hidden agenda—we all engage in our efforts on the Board truthfully and honestly. • To get to the end-point, stay together as a team. We must stay disciplined and stay on point. •  Revere similarities—trivialize differences. Our goal is to identify and leverage similarities to take and create advantage. •  Hold yourself accountable to the decisions of the team; outliers in debate must be leaders in action.
