Leadership charter: personal conduct, e.g. Be positive in my approach resist the temptation to complain. Be interested in the innovations of others. See out the opportunity to reflect on personal practise not see performance management as a tic box exercise. 
As a manage: fairly reflect positives and areas for improvement not just focus on the negatives.

It needs to be delivered in a consistent manner, to people it actually concerns.
The delivery of messages needs to be consistent across the organisation (not just individual teams/areas) to contribute to an overall quality culture of communications
