Would the person be able to laugh at the ribbing if they heard it?<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t manipulate anyone. No overt politics or games. This does not mean that you don not carefully work the system, but it does mean that you do everything above board. Total honesty. No hidden agendas.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t be insensitive. Keep the feelings and perspectives of others in mind.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t discourage personal growth. Seek to have those around you succeed.
