Some simplehouse rules

Be thoughtful

This is an inclusive space. Think about how what you say could be taken by people with a different perspective to you.

Be friendly

Start by assuming everyone here is nice and act in the same way.

Be empathetic

Understanding each other. Imagine how people are feeling. Let’s be sensitive and create an empathetic environment.

Be honest

Sometimes work is great. Sometimes it is less great. Let’s give constructive feedback whenever we can. It improves our work and our impact.

Be generous

Be open about your work and experiences. No one here is looking to rip you off. Share what you do and what you know.
