We are just beginning to develop this new approach to developing collective resonance. We expect to gather up all the principles and practices followed by people everywhere, that tend to support or develop better connections between people.

We see this "portal" as a kind of gateway process, through which potentially millions of people could enter, joining an agreement of trust and understanding and spiritual acceleration, that can lead to a transformation of culture.

This process of agreement and shared understanding is just beginning, and will continue to unfold here. Please check off the principles and practices you can agree with.

			Teamwork is essential. Build a star team, not a team of stars.
			Diversity of thought, perception, background and experience enhance creativity and innovation.
			Facilitate cross-pollination of ideas.
			Challenge people from different disciplines and cultures to come up with something better together and achieve creative breakthroughs.
			Leveraging Opposite Forces: You can inspire innovation and find a strategic competitive advantage in an organizational and cultural context by seeking to leverage, rather than diminish, opposite forces. People with different cultural, educational, scientific, and business backgrounds will bring different frames of reference to a problem and can spark an exciting and dynamic cross-pollination of ideas.
			"An important but widely overlooked principle of organization success is that integrating opposites, as opposed to identifying them as inconsistencies and driving them out, unleashes power"
			Polarized thinking is simplistic and misleading. In the business world, ideal approaches are generally painted in gray as opposed to black and white." To be successful in today's complex, rapidly changing and highly competitive world, you must embrace and manage critical opposites.
			Harnessing the Power of Diversity and Building Synergies: You can inspire innovation and find a strategic competitive advantage in your team by seeking to leverage, rather than diminish, diversity. People with different cultural, educational, scientific, and business backgrounds will bring different frames of reference to a problem and can spark an exciting and dynamic cross-pollination of ideas.
			A team that builds on core competencies of individual players to develop synergies among them thus makes its members more productive together than independently...
			To find a better creative solution to the current practice, force yourself to reframe the problem, to break down its components and assemble them in a different way.
			"Integrated diversity" is a term used by Jack Welch, the legendary former CEO of General Electric, to define a synergistic learning culture. He described "integrated diversity" as the elimination of boundaries between businesses and the transferring of ideas from one place in the company to another. "Integrated diversity means the drawing together of our thirteen different businesses by sharing ideas, by finding multiple applications for technological advancements, and by moving people across businesses to provide fresh perspectives and to develop broad-based experience. Integrated diversity gives us a company that is considerably greater than the sum of its parts."
			Integrated diversity only works when the elements of that diversity, independent businesses, are strong in their own right. "GE wouldn't succeed by propping up small businesses with larger ones or having weaklings rely on winners. That was why Welch had always emphasized the importance of creating strong, stand-alone businesses."
			Treat people as individuals.
