I follow these guiding principles:
- I will be accountable – answerable to residents and not to a political party
- I will work in the open – honestly and transparently – and give reasons for my decisions
- I will offer community leadership
- I will be positive, solution-focussed and forward thinking
- I will be a convener and will facilitate open, honest and unrushed conversations
- I will support good ideas and take practical action regardless of the party affiliation of those sponsoring them
- I will be inclusive and respectful of differences and seek to develop empathy for different viewpoints
- I will be prepared to compromise on certain issues to achieve the best outcomes for the whole community.
“There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.” Margaret Wheatley
