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

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!

Three things I learned from the Culture Guide are...
1. There are expectations that we must follow and meet on 7 Cups, but there is also a wonderful community to guide us and support us to be the best version of ourselves on here!!
2. Failure is okay. We just have to learn from our failures and use the knowledge we obtained to improve our work!
3. 7 Cups was built on trust, and we must maintain the trust by doing our best for our community and being accountable for our actions. In doing so, we can build a stronger community and help support our mission better!!

3 most important things you learned and why they are important to you.
1. Accountability: As a listener, I am accountable to my responsibilities and I will try my best.
2. Personal growth: I learn that failures are learning opportunities to refine myself. If I have difficulty, I have mentors, chat supports and peer support to facilitate my personal growth.
3. Togetherness : I learn that I'm part of a community where we work towards common goals.

I have learned that failure isn't final and is a chance to learn and grow.
That honesty and compassion lead to trust which leads to a stronger community you have to invest in the community to get the best of the community.
@GlenM
Three things I learned:
1. 7cups creates a service which enables and encourages individual and community growth and support.
2. Fullfilling work is work that you are good at, that interests you and that solves important problem(s) and/or meets an important goal (Thiel, 2015).
3. Failure is expected; but with engagement and focus it is learned from!
These are important to me as they align with my own values, make me feel inspired and engaged, and fosters the feelings of being supported while supporting others.
