We had a team day this week where we discussed some principles that informs the updates in our guiding principles - suggested in this PR.

@GabinWK @eirini-zormpa @aleesteele @vhellon - I will wait for each of your comments before merging this to be sure that you have read this and any of your concerns are addressed before this becomes integrated in our guiding principles.

GabinWK commented 1 year ago

I was wondering whether we could have those principles numbered and categorised. That would look more structured then itemised and perhaps easier to present and maybe remember (?) Something in the line of " Our 10 guiding principles are ..." 10 just like 3 (maybe 5 too) is a nice number to remember :-)

10 PRINCIPLES

Social

  1. Maintain respect, empathy and integrity in the team and the communities we build.
  2. Prioritise diversity, equity and inclusion in all our work.
  3. Create a safe and non-judgemental environment to engage each other, celebrate successes, admit errors and draw learnings from our mistakes.
  4. Be willing to work through conflicts to resolution.

Work?

  1. Share knowledge about the scientific communities you coordinate and the issue you are seeking to address.
  2. Provide access to resources that empower and enable each other to discover, display and directly use their knowledge and skills.
  3. Ensure that transparent reporting practices and effective communications become a regular and ongoing component of our community-building process.
  4. Collaborate with individuals and institutions beyond the team that expand and extend our mission for open Research Community Management.

Growth?

  1. Actively create and identify future opportunities to enable collaboration and integration of open research practices to co-create additional knowledge.
  2. Contribute to the ongoing professional development of team members by maximising opportunities for collaborative work, their careers, and open research at large.

Thanks, Gabin. I think for the Turing values, we should not use a numbered list as it gives the notion of hierarchy or priority in which we follow them. Also, that will keep it consistent with the Turing’s format.

For the other principles, I don't see them as applied to one specific contexts (also I should not regulate your social principles) but should be followed in all work (professionally). I am happy to hear what others think and go with the majority for this part.

Looks good to me too

malvikasharan commented 1 year ago

@GabinWK I have added bullet points now - that helped remove some redundancies too. Thank you for the feedback.

Assuming that all of you have read this. I will merge and share with the TPS team. Thank you all.
