Appreciation - Acknowledgement of historical organizational effort and success
Collaboration - Effectively working across stakeholder and functional lines
Engagement - High-level involvement, interaction, and communication
Consultation - Quality input, evaluation, deliberation
Ownership - Connection, vested self-interest, commitment to results
