Values and Behaviours

Your company may not have developed any shared values, widely communicated the values or they simply may not be well understood. We can build on the values journey you’ve started by working with you to determine the behaviours that demonstrate the values in action.

In this workshop we discuss personal and organisational values, why they are important, how shared values form the basis of organisational culture. We define behaviours and set out what the company expect from employees and what employees can expect from the company.

Learning objectives:

  • understand above the line, below the line and conscious leadership models;
  • identify associated ‘above the line’ words for inclusion in behaviour statements;
  • determine behaviours that best demonstrate the values being enacted;
  • ideas to incorporate values and behaviour statements into ways of working; and
  • anchoring values and behaviours into company policies and performance.
