If your purpose describes why you exist, how you are unique, and what you do, your values capture how you behave in the pursuit of your company mission. Values provide an essential moral compass to your business. They define what is important; what is of ‘value’ or considered valuable.
Here’s the trick though. Values can’t be seen. We learn from each other what our values are by observing and experiencing the behaviours, attitudes, responses and practices that naturally arise during our interactions with people.
The behaviours you see are the indicators of the values held within. Therefore, for people to be meaningfully held accountable to a set of values or ethical standards, the behaviours that exemplify your values must be defined.
