Rules of I&E Network:
1. Break the Rules and Dream
Challenge conventional thinking. Innovation flourishes when people look beyond traditional boundaries and notice what others miss.
2. Open Doors and Listen
Remain approachable and receptive to new people and ideas; active listening creates opportunities for unexpected connections.
3. Trust and Be Trusted
Trust is the foundation of an innovation community. Take small risks with others to build mutual confidence and collaboration.
4. Experiment and Develop Value
Prioritize action over perfection: try, fail, learn, and try again. Seek help and ask questions.
5. Seek Fairness, Not Advantage (No Selling)
Build relationships and partnerships on mutual respect rather than trying to "win" at others' expense.
6. Fail and Persist
Failure is expected and acceptable; the key is to persist and keep moving forward.
7. Pay It Forward
Help others without expecting immediate returns. Generosity plants the seeds for future collaboration.
