Wheaton's law: "Don't be a dick", we feel would be a excellent company policy or company value. But for obvious reasons we can nit use that verbatim.
What would be a more work appropriate way of phrasing that, while still capturing the simplicity and directness, without being overly prescriptive?

Could you get away with
"Don't be an SOB."

"Grow up mate."
is my personal favourite, gives the correct message while not being particularly offensive. But any variation on 'act your age' or 'play fair' can be appropriate dependent on the circumstances.

Wouldn't be useful. Everybody's definition of "dick-like" behavior is different and hence it wouldn't result in a consistent policy or consistent behavior. A good behavioral policy needs to specific enough so that that the judgement of what's acceptable and not acceptable behavior is not open to personal interpretation or definition.
