A genuinely ethical community has three basic components:
- Trust
- Loyalty
- Solidarity
These three components are very important in a club like Baja. We have to trust each other, we have to be loyal to the other members and the work we are doing. What is great with Baja, is that we have each others back no matter what. If someone is struggling with anything, there is always someone you can talk to and a shoulder to cry on.
We are a mix of so different human beings. Sometimes it isn't easy being a group of girls with so many different values and personalities. But, there is something we always agree on: teamwork and trust, loyalty, and solidarity to Baja. We have to put or differences aside to get the group to work and focus on the values we do share.
I don't feel like we are missing any important values, but I feel we come short in some:
- The ability to attract more people to the club and more sponsors. We are allowed to use as much money we want for our car, but since we don't have any bigger sponsors we have a budget on what the school is willing to sponsor us with.
- Another thing I feel we are lacking is structure and better leadership. Since we are a group of girls, I feel like the captain might come short to lead the group. She might worry to much about what other feel and want.
The lacking of leadership might be that we as individuals haven't been able to do this in other situations. Most of the girls are missing that experience. What we can do is support the captain and help her on the way by not getting upset by being lead. At least, all we can do is try!
