7 Cups Culture Guide + Badge!
Hello Community!
Ive been enjoying the launch of the Leadership Development Program (LDP). We are all learning a lot. We have a lot of great new leaders signing up to serve our community. Im thankful for them and their service!
One thing that has struck me is the impact of the 7 Cups Culture Guide. I wrote the first draft of ths on a long flight back in 2017. New leaders were commenting that it was meaningful and some were surprised to see how it is a foundation to all the work we do here on 7 Cups. New leaders review the guide and take a test as part of the first course in the LDP. Their reaction to the guide and the test made me realize that we should more deliberately extend access to the guide and test to our broader community.
If you are interested in learning more about our culture and embracing it, then, please
Take the test here! (Blue Text is clickable)
Next, post the 3 most important things you learned and why they are important to you. Then, post that you have read the guide and taken the test with the following words:
I, (username), have read the 7 Cups culture guide, taken the test, and am now a 7 Cups Culture Holder.
Once youve made the post, we will award you the 7 Cups Culture Holder Badge. We will do this manually at first so there will be a small delay from the time that you complete the course and receive the badge.
Im looking forward to hearing your feedback. Thank you for being a part of our community!

3 things I learned that are important to me is:
That failure is ok because you learn and that as long as you try it's ok.
Trust allows us to grow and helps 7 Cups reach its mission into making the world a better place.
And working with others, collaborating helps you and the other person within 7 Cups.

The 3 most important things that I learned from this is -
1.) Faliure is o.k. You have to fail sometimes it is apart of life. Like the saying goes a door closes and another opens (something like that) lol. So if you fail there is always next time etc...
2.) Teamwork. I believe that you need to have teamwork to make something work as a team etc...
3.) Everyone is of value. Why I feel that way because I believe that everyone deserves a chance at least once, everybody deserves to be treated well etc...
I have read the guide and taken the test.

Some things I've learned:
1. Failure should be looked at as an opportunity to learn and grow. We shouldn't let us hold us back, rather it should motivate us to continue pursuing what we want.
2. Trust is the base of 7 cups. It allows us to grow as people and allows us to build lasting relationships
3. Skin in the game refers to sacrificing time and/or money to make a positive difference. Without sacrificing something, we can't stand to gain anything.
