3. Think “who else should know this?”
4. Always tell the neighbours before you have the party!
5. No passengers.
6. “Tell me if I’m talking a load of old cobblers.”
7. Share learning and feelings—positive or otherwise.
8. Show appreciation of others’ efforts.
9. Take ownership! When something goes wrong, think, “What can I do?”
10. Ask for help—don’t suffer in silence.
11. Show up at team gatherings.
12. Celebrate success seriously!
