A Working Creed for Taking Initiative
A Working Creed for Taking Initiative
March 28, 2001
"I will begin the process of change with myself.
Start with my own personal growth
I will face the dragon- my work fears.
Replace fear with passion.
I will integrate independence and interdependence.
Be myself and collaborate with others.
I will join, not work for, my organizations and customers.
Build work and work relationships based on equality
and competence.
I will commit to continuous learning.
View my career as a lifetime endeavor.
I will create meaningful work.
Work, believing that the world offers what I need and that I can make a contribution - Cliff Hakim (Nelson, 1999, p.32)."
