We recently asked our clients how they are addressing the economic down-turn. Downsizing, "rightsizing", process improvement and many other tactics are being employed, according to their responses. A significant percentage (50+ %) said that their organizations are "getting back to basics"...many are focusing on their Core Values as a form of getting back to basics to guide them through tough times. One of our clients measures EVERY initiative against their Core Values...if it doesn't match, it doesn't happen.
What is YOUR organization's economic stimulus package? Layoffs? Cutting training? Straying from your Core Values because they are not convenient in tough times?
The organizations that are most successful long term not only stay with "back to basics as a mantra"...they also put processes in place to allow their employees to understand HOW to live the organization's Core Values...not just WHAT the Core Values are.
What do you have in place to allow your team members to live your Core Values?
