Respect for all perspectives
Confidentiality
Norms are the standards or expectations by which a group has agreed to operate while working together. They should be used whenever two or more people are working together for a productive outcome.
Norms help to maximize the productivity and effectiveness in a positive setting and ensure that individuals are respected. They place responsibility on individuals for expected behavior helping to build community in your group, and, at the same time allow for risk taking.
Norms should be positive, kept simple and be few in number. The optimum situation is for the group to develop their own norms.

Jot down a few things that have gone well or that are going well.
