"Lift up, not kick down!"

We are convinced that learnings and experiences should be shared liberally, if not freely. It is our responsibility to help others do their jobs effectively, by helping them "climb the ladder". Instead of gatekeeping positions in IT, instead of diminishing the achievements of others, we believe that success should be celebrated and that we should strive to bring "newbies" up to our own level.
