The Value of Values


By Eric Garner

One of the toughest jobs a leader has to perform is to act as guardian of an organisation's values.

An organisation's values are the things that are really important to it.

In the early days of an enterprise Tobias Harris Jersey , the values are sometimes the only thing that keeps the business going. When other factors make the chances of survival doubtful, such as funds, markets, and technology, it is the set of beliefs held by the original founders which pull the business through. The beliefs of the organization are almost always the beliefs of the original leaders.

These beliefs are intangible. Think of Unilever's belief in co-operation Cheap 76ers Hats , or Mars's belief in efficiency, or IBM's belief in innovation, or Hewlett-Packard's belief in "plain hard work", or Levi-Strauss's belief in empathy with its customers. It is the high value placed on these beliefs that ensure these organizations survive in the first place and continue to survive.

As the years go by, and the organization changes its technology Cheap 76ers Hoodies , its products and its leaders, there is a danger that it may abandon its original set of beliefs or relegate them in importance or forget them. To do so is to risk corporate suicide. If original values have to change – often a difficult step – then new values must replace them and be as meaningful, relevant and important as the original ones.

As custodians of the organisation's values, leaders have to know the values, live the values Cheap 76ers T-Shirts , and preserve the values. John Maxwell tells the story of how John Wooden, head basketball coach at the University of California, put values before expediency. Wooden had spotted an outstanding young basketball player whose skills would be an asset to his line-up. Everyone urged him to sign the youth. But Wooden was unsure. Something in the young man's demeanour bothered him. So he arranged a home visit, with the contract all prepared in his inside pocket. When he took tea with the family, he couldn't help noticing a disrespectfulness in the youth's attitude towards his mother. One of the key values in Wooden's team was respect. And it was a value he intended to maintain. As a result Customized 76ers Jerseys , the contract stayed in his pocket.

Values are not just important for the organization. They are the touchstone that determines whether people succeed in the organization. When the chips are down, it's not what you do that counts, but whether you stay true to the values. As Christel Brown says, "People do things because of their values. People rob banks because their values include greed, more money and maybe recognition. People die on the battlefield because their values include love of their country and patriotism." Values are the ultimate people motivators. In organizations where values matter 76ers Big Tall Jerseys , people may be dismissed for violating the rules; they should always be dismissed for violating the values.

John Maxwell says that values are at the heart of everything an organization does, hence the use of the phrase "core values".
"Values are like glue. They hold an organization together.
Values are like a ruler. They set the standard for a team's performance.
Values are like a compass. They give direction and guidance.
Values are like a magnet. They attract like-minded people.
Values provide identity. They define and identify the team."

One last example. Few people today have heard of Phil Knight, Bill Bowerman and Steve Prefontaine. But these three were the driving force and inspiration that created Nike, the footwear and clothing colossus. And what drove them? A passionate belief that things could be done. The stories of Bowerman's endless experiments with the family waffle iron into which he poured rubber to create the best running shoe sole are legendary. So are Prefontaine's battles to make running a professional sport. Today, Nike actually employs executives as "corporate storytellers" to remind their staff of the values of the original founders and that their business is about getting things done.

In business 76ers City Edition Jerseys , as in life, beliefs can move mountains. Without belief, without a positive set of beliefs, and without action to act on these beliefs, we achieve nothing. Our beliefs and values drive us and our businesses. As Alvin Toffler says Cheap 76ers Jerseys , "Every business has a belief system and it is at least as important as its accounting system or its authority system."
