This playbook exists to align everyone with our purpose, values, and processes. We want to show who we are to all our stakeholders - our colleagues, customers, partners, friends, and family, and anyone who wants to know what Plainsight stands for and how we do business. It's a living document that evolves with us, ensuring that we stay on course as we grow and innovate together.

Principles:

• Guidelines in the handbook are meant to help, not act as strict rules.

• Be gentle when reminding others about guidelines, using phrases like "It's not a problem, but next time consider this guideline."

• If someone responds with a link to the handbook, they're trying to help, not expecting you to have read it all.

• When asking for help, document the answer to share with the community and discuss where to document it.

• Always link to the relevant part of the handbook in communications rather than copying text.

• The handbook reflects current practices; to change a process, update the handbook via a merge request.

• Handbook guidelines apply equally to everyone of us.

• Follow #playbook channel for updates.
