Seven Things You Didn't Know About Hong KongAllison Baum
油
Before I moved to Hong Kong, there was a lot I didn't know about it (there still is lots left to discover). Here are the key things I think are worth knowing if you're thinking about moving to Hong Kong or are curious about start up life here.
5. CORE VALUES
PEOPLE BEFORE THE
MACHINE.
While we value powerful ideas and innovative startups, the lifeblood of
any community is the individuals involved. We believe in empathy and
reciprocity and that community can enable individual pursuits.
6. CORE VALUES
LEARNING BY DOING.
We believe that self-actualization is gained through applied, hands- on
experience. We are here not to seek or to hope for the future, but
actively construct it with our hands. If we get it wrong, we modify and
try again; real progress only comes through reflection and relentless
iteration.
7. CORE VALUES
JOURNEY OVER
DESTINATION.
General Assembly is about the shared experience of fellow builders
taking risks about embracing failure as much as success. When great
companies fail, theyre gone forever. When great people fail, they learn
from their experiences and go on to pursue new ventures with a greater
chance of success.
