Guiding Principles
Guiding Principles
Listen to understand. When one person talks, others listen.
Speak to be understood. We use lay terms and are patient with people who are not experts in our specific field. We are all learning, no matter who we are.
Embrace “Yes and…” Focus on possibilities instead of obstacles. Be inclusive of other people’s ideas. Honor divergence.
Take space / make space. Those who tend to talk a lot are intentional about letting others talk first, while those who tend to hold back are intentional about contributing.
Beware of blind spots. We do not know what we do not know. We are vigilant for differences among our experiences and positions.
Respect time. When a session is over, we need to move on. There is designated time for in-depth follow up and continuing conversations.
Care for each other. We bring our full selves to the community, and we look out for each other wholeheartedly.

It is the responsibility of all members of the ABC Global Center community to eliminate any form of misconduct in science and to build a community that allows all individuals to thrive, learn, and grow. Misconduct includes:
● Abuse of any person, including, but not limited to, harassment, stalking, bullying, or hazing of any kind, whether the behavior is carried out verbally, physically, electronically, or in written form;
● Conduct that is unwelcome, offensive, indecent, obscene, or disorderly;
Those who experience or witness misconduct in an ABC Center-related off-site work environment will be advised to take these steps:
1. Document the incident;
2. Report the incident to field leaders and/or ABC Center Management who will offer to connect them to resources (i.e. medical care, police, counseling, etc.) and provide validation of their experience.
ABC Center Management will investigate all reports of misconduct. Those found to engage in misconduct will be subject to dismissal from the project and further actions as directed by the guidelines of the employers, place of incidence, and relevant federal policies.
