You are in the relationship business.
Welcome newcomers. Help them find their place.
Show by example.
Strive to influence and persuade.
Have a big fuse. Never let the bottom drop out.
Use a light touch. Don't be authoritarian.
Affirm people. Encourage them to open up.
Expect ferment. Allow some tumbling.
Don't give in to tyranny by individual or group.
Leave room in the rules for judgment calls.
Encourage personal and professional overlap.
Think "tolerance."
