The principles are the organizational DNA found in each and every cell of the organization, no matter how it grows and evolves. Participation provides owning members an opportunity to create wealth by creating a self-organizing, self-governing, self-evolving global enterprise founded on holocratic principles.

In pursuit of the purpose, mission and vision each and every part will abide by the following principles in conducting activities:
