Upsides Community Guidelines
Community Spirit
Upsides is designed to support an ecosystem of business founders and owners, influencers, creators, business coaches, and members with various skills and experiences. We strive for a community that is supportive, positive and helpful.
Above all, we desire a state wherein the community ethos itself encourages a healthy mutual respect, even during discussions that involve divergent points of view. We believe that the best ideas and solutions come through the exploration of different perspectives, and that such should enlighten all who participate and observe.
However, this is only so when debates are entered into in good faith and based on mutual respect.
There are many online destinations wherein antagonistic interactions are allowed and even encouraged. Upsides wishes to offer respite from these environments, especially as our focus is on constructive growth and productive activity that generate positive outcomes—financially, professionally and personally—for all involved.
As such, the Community Guidelines start from a small set of rules that comprise "The Basics", however, may be amended as required over time.

A Key Consideration
Ideas that may seem unworkable may, in fact, be brilliant when viewed from a different perspective.
It is a near certainty that extraordinary talent in what may seem the "unlikeliest of packages" will be discovered in the Upsides Community, as our program design provides opportunities that previously did not exist for large segments of society.
When engaging with others here, be open to ideas and perspectives that come from people with different backgrounds and experiences, and you may just be amazed by what we can build together.
