Operating Principles
ZimHA is guided by the following operating principles
Exemplary Leadership
We strive to demonstrate exemplary leadership. We are all leaders wherever we are – be it in our homes or in the community. For someone in the community, you may be the only dad or mom or big brother or sister that they ever see.
Accountability
We choose to do the right thing right, even if it means being unpopular or having to do it alone. We take responsibility for our actions. We own our results and are not afraid to take risks.
Honesty and Integrity
We believe in modeling the trustworthiness and integrity that continuously earns the public’s high regard for the nonprofit sector. This reflects an alignment between what we say, what we do, and how we do it to accomplish our mission.
Teamwork and community
Building a sense of an uncultured community coming together through open communication – no individualism. We celebrate, respect, and include all Zimbabweans living in Houston. We invite everyone to bring their time, talent, and treasure to be used for the betterment of the family community.
Engagement and connectivity
With an innovative and empowering spirit, we engage all stakeholders, and the greater society at large, through solutions and ideas that shape social responsibility trends and advance sustainable, effective philanthropy.
Exceptional customer service
We work on the principle of treating others the way that we would want them to treat us. We respect each other and respect each other’s time, talent, and treasure. We encourage open communication and deliver exceptional customer service to each other.
Win with everyone
We educate, encourage, empower, engage, energize, equip, embetter, elevate and embrace all people. We use excellence as our standard in all our dealings with everyone. We have fun at it.
LEADERSHIP
ZimHA is led by a voluntary board of directors headed by a chairperson. Board members are not compensated in any way for their time and expertise. The men and women in this team sacrifice their personal time, expertise and often financial resources to meet some of the operational and project needs of the organizations.
Barack Obama, former U.S. President said:
“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”
