## Alignment with Core Principles of Voice Up

The Voice Up Theory for Learning is deeply intertwined with the five core principles that guide all Voice Up initiatives:

1. **Collaboration**: The theory emphasizes that purpose-driven learning is inherently collaborative. By bringing diverse talents together around shared purposes, participants learn that their individual purposes often complement others', creating powerful synergies. The small group meetings and community support structures reinforce this collaborative approach to learning and growth.

2. **Humility**: Discovering one's purpose requires honest self-assessment and recognition of both strengths and growth areas. The Voice Up Theory cultivates humility by encouraging participants to recognize that their talents are gifts to be developed in service to others, not sources of personal pride or superiority. This principle is especially evident in the way participants are taught to receive feedback and guidance from mentors.
