For this deed of the queen shall come abroad unto all women, so that they shall despise their husbands in their eyes, when it shall be reported, The king Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not.(Esther 1:17)

Likewise shall the ladies of Persia and Media say this day unto all the king's princes, which have heard of the deed of the queen. Thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath.(Esther 1:18)

If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she.(Esther 1:19)

And when the king's decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to great and small.

And the saying pleased the king and the princes; and the king did according to the word of Memucan:(Esther 1:21)

For he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and that it should be published according to the language of every people.(Esther 1:22)

After these things, when the wrath of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.(Esther 2:1)

Esther knew how to work as a team with others

An Esther cannot be neutral
Dr. Roberto Miranda speaks about the book of Esther and encourages the church to be prophetic and not neutral in defending the values of the Kingdom of God. He sees every member of the church as an instrument for the preservation of life and urges them to live intentionally. The author cites the example of a couple from the church in Colombia who decided to get married after living together for many years, as an example of people whose lives have been transformed and who are witnessing to their unconverted family about Jesus Christ.
