Rules of I&E Network:
1. Break the Rules and Dream — Challenge common assumptions; creativity comes from pushing beyond standard limits. Look for what others miss.
2. Open Doors and Listen — Be approachable and receptive to new people and ideas. Active listening often leads to unexpected opportunities.
3. Trust and Be Trusted — Cultivate mutual confidence. Take small, considered risks with others to build collaborative relationships.
4. Experiment and Develop Value — Prioritize action over perfection: try, learn, iterate, and seek help when needed.
5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling) — Foster partnerships based on respect and equity rather than trying to win at others' expense.
6. Fail and Persist — Accept that setbacks will happen; the important part is to persevere and move forward.
7. Pay It Forward — Help others without expecting immediate returns; generosity plants seeds for future collaboration.
