Norms and Update

At our first meeting "The Ratpack" established a list of agreed upon norms. These include:

  • We agree to be flexible (mentally and not always physically)
  • We agree to listen actively
  • We will use humor to our advantage
  • We will offer constructive feedback
  • We will offer creative solutions
  • We will be honest in our evaluation
In addition the group has decided to each share a weekly need as they occur. This will be a need/question that we wish to pose or address.

I am looking forward to working with both of you this year on this project. It should be a worthwhile and interesting adventure. We will resume our meetings on the Tuesday following Back To School Night.
