Atricle Dump - The Value of Values
In today's competitive labor market, good help is getting increasingly difficult to find. The aging baby boomer population has created a hiring crunch of qualified human resources.

In the early days of an enterprise, 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, 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.

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, and preserve the values.
