We aim for all our members to share our vision and values. They act as ambassadors of Women on Board.
Diversity
We are able to interact with others with a different background (including mastering of the required language skills) and adapt to different cultural contexts/environments.
We respect and work effectively with diverse people to benefit from their skills, experiences and best practices available.
Ethics and integrity
We understand and behave in accordance with a professional, ethical and legal framework.
We demonstrate consistency between expressed principles and behaviors.
We are transparent and honest in dealing with others.
We put the general interest before own interest and stand by our decisions.
Empathy
We demonstrate a deep understanding of the values and motives of others and we communicate effectively and concisely. We sustain the concern to build trust.
We experience “empathy” as a form of social awareness , which is important in the development of a moral sense.
Sharing
We build commitment by communicating on a regular basis about vision and objectives.
We take and encourage initiatives aiming at sharing the vision across the organisation.
We build bridges between members to exchange expertise and we stimulate cross-fertilization.
Make it happen
We create a “can do” climate and demonstrate an entrepreneurial attitude by proposing initiatives and implementing them.
We define actions by translating ideas into workable solutions that will contribute to completion of the goals.
We consider new ideas and are prepared to try out different approaches through non-traditional ways.
