Humility
Workplace humility manifests as the ability to acknowledge both personal limitations and the valuable contributions of others. It involves maintaining an learning mindset, regardless of position or experience level. Humble team members readily admit mistakes, seek feedback for improvement, and recognize that every person on the team—from the newest hire to the most seasoned veteran—has valuable insights to offer.
They understand that no one person has all the answers and that success comes from being open to learning from anyone. Humility also means being willing to take on tasks regardless of status and recognizing that every role contributes to the team's success.
