Episode Notes
In this episode, we discuss the importance of core values and how to build them for your business.
We talk about what they are and what they mean to us and our corporation. We then go through ours, one through five.
Core values are something that we see thrown around a lot. We read about them – there are business articles on core values. People give a lot of time to core values, but I’m not really sure if everyone understands why you do core values.
I look at core values as sort of a compass, maybe even as a decision lens for our team. So if you have a certain set of values, it should allow your team to make a decision through the lens of those values.
So as we go through ours, we talk about why we came up with those, what they mean to us. And for those listening, I just want you to think what would that mean in your organization. How could that apply?
Overall, I’d say you need core values. It’s very important and your team needs to be able to keep them top of mind. We know we have ours pasted up in the trainer’s office.
Once you have your set core values, there’s a lot of ways those can manifest themselves in your business.
Stay tuned to know more.
