  6. Keys to Success • Each installation and community is unique - tailor process; keep it simple • Mission enhancement and committed installation and community leaders • Be innovative, inclusive & entrepreneurial; use intellectual capital • Transparency (versus hidden agenda) trust • Equity (versus power) respect • Mutual benefit (versus winning at all costs) engagement • Precise language/brevity (versus jargon) understanding
