Open-Mindedness - Sure, there is often a common/standard way that engineers solve particular problems, but being dogmatic about doing it the "correct" way just ends up stifling personal/company growth.

Patience - None of us know everything and are good at everything, so we all need patient teachers.

Valuing team success over personal success - The latter naturally follows the former. If that is not the case, find a new team!
