Respectful
People who communicate effectively are open to divergent opinions and views. They listen actively and thoughtfully, even when they disagree with what’s being said. Institutions should strive to make active, respectful listening a cultural
norm, especially when it comes to communications.
Accept that diverse points of view have inherent value.
Embracing things you don’t know and insights you can learn from others heightens your awareness and expands your capacity to be truly engaged, alert and responsive.

““The biggest gap I see is in
communication with donors or funders, which happens quickly,
and communication with constituents, which always seems to happen last
