• Vulnerability: High vulnerability and self-awareness are key to building trust and learning fast, which is more important than titles, prestige and ego. Rangers grow fast by asking questions without judging or being judged.
• Open communication: Growth is impossible without seeking feedback. Rangers seek and give feedback constantly, and use it to get to the best possible outcome as a team.
• Ownership: Rangers autonomously take decisions, take the lead in order to move forward fast and efficient, with as little hierarchical dependencies as possible. They own their growth and ambitions.
