Honesty:  In our dealings with one another as individuals, and in our work, our meetings, and our representation of LDS, we are always honest. We never hide or fudge information, and never misrepresent a situation. We are secure in being honest, open, and forthright because we know that those at LDS relate to one another from a perspective of—

I Got Your Back and How Can I Help:  We are here to help one another do her or his best at achieving our tasks, objectives, and goals. We recognize that internal competition will hinder our efforts. Our shared environment and culture is one where we celebrate one another’s successes, because every success is another piece of actualizing our mission, and every failure is an opportunity to learn how to do the job better.

Responsible and Accountable: Responsible: When we commit to doing something, we see it through. We don’t let things fall through the cracks. Accountable: We have a “the buck stops here” attitude to our work and responsibilities. If we fall behind or fall short, we don’t look for excuses or to blame others, rather we honestly and openly present the challenges we are facing and seek assistance.

Daring Thinking: We don’t merely encourage out-of-the-box thinking, we challenge ourselves to totally ignore the “box,” to not fear proposing impossible and unrealistic solutions, and to bring bold, imaginative thinking to every challenge we—and the people we serve—are facing.

Am Yisrael Chai: We are a proudly Zionist organization in which we feel grateful for the historic opportunity to help and support the state and people of Israel. We embrace the opportunity to involve others in this great mission.

Audacious: In defending, supporting, and advocating for the state and people of Israel, we believe that whatever needs to get done, must get done. We are creative, proactive, and when necessary, absolutely unconventional.

Bottom line: With every challenge, in every realm, whatever needs arise, whatever needs to get done, we’ll do everything we can to figure out how to respond and GET IT DONE.
