- A point of view
- You form an opinion, say it plainly, and change it when the evidence changes.
- Reliability

- Integrity
- You tell the truth, including about numbers, claims and your own mistakes.

- You take responsibility for outcomes and find a way to get things done.
- Optimism
- You bring constructive energy to hard problems.
