📘 Instructions

1. Review the five core values:
   • Approach Directly – Speak clearly, give and receive feedback, and face challenges with care
   • Ask Why – Stay curious and seek understanding before you act
   • Above & Beyond – Don’t just meet expectations—exceed them
   • Always Long-Term – Build relationships and habits that last
   • Adopt Atypical – Think differently, challenge norms, and bring a fresh perspective
2. Write a short example (2–3 sentences) for each value:
   • When have you lived this value?
   • What behavior or decision reflected it?
   • If the value feels unfamiliar, how might you grow into it?
3. Review your work using the AI feedback prompt below. This step is required.

🤖 AI Feedback Prompt (Required)
