Collective Music Nation Core Values

MEMBERS ARE FIRST

OUR MEMBERS COME FIRST. WE’RE DRIVEN TO EXCEED THEIR EXPECTATIONS BY LISTENING, LEADING, SOLVING PROBLEMS AND DELIVERING WHAT WE PROMISE.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

E CELEBRATE EXCELLENCE WITHIN THE COLLECTIVE MUSIC COMMUNITY, AND WITHIN THE CMN TEAM. WE ENCOURAGE PRODUCTIVITY, CREATIVITY AND EFFICIENCY, AND THERE IS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FOR THEIR HARD WORK.

KNOWLEDGE SHARING

PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL GROWTH DEPENDS ON TEAMWORK. BY SHARING KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, IDEAS AND EFFORT, WE BENEFIT OUR MEMBERS, OURSELVES AND OUR MUSIC COMMUNITIES.

ORGANIZED NETWORKING

STRONG RELATIONSHIPS BREAK DOWN BARRIERS AND PROMOTE INNOVATION AND COOPERATION. BY WORKING AS AN OPEN-MINDED, APPROACHABLE TEAM, WE ACHIEVE EXCELLENCE.

INTEGRITY

THE BEST RELATIONSHIPS ARE FOUNDED ON HONESTY, TRUST AND RESPECT. WE SAY WHAT WE WILL DO, AND THEN WE DO IT.

EVERYONE IS IMPORTANT

OUR FUTURE DEPENDS ON THE SUCCESS OF EACH MEMBER. IN A COLLECTIVE MUSIC NATION OF DIGNITY AND DIVERSITY, WE WILL NOT BE EXCLUSIVE BUT WILL CREATE OPPORTUNITIES AND APPRECIATION FOR ALL RACE, GENDER OR RELIGIOUS AFFILIATIONS.

Our Commitment to the Collective Members

We commit ourselves to making CMN into the kind of organization that will bring in new members and to reassure existing members that their fellow members who serve on CMN committees are reliable advocates, committed to fair and transparent governance and to a multilingual and cross-generational membership.
