 Within the Department of the Navy, we all readily recite our core values of honor, courage, and commitment. There's amplifying language that defines each core value. The words that help us understand commitment are, as a team, improved the quality of our work, our people, and ourselves. Foster respect up and down the chain of command. Show respect toward all people without regard to race, religion, and gender. Always strive for positive change in the personal improvement. As we finish our series on signature behaviors, number one tells us to treat every person with respect. This is so much harder than it sounds, but it is critically important and directly tied to our core values. I challenge you to measure the respect you extend to others. It will surely be a learning experience. Lead well this week.
