Q: How can we facilitate creating core values?
A: Values are important as they’re the organizational expression of behavior you expect to see in practice. There are a few tips as you identify your core values. to identify and facilitate the creation of your values:
Outline Values in a Dedicated Time Block or Workflow.
Sometimes, values are lumped together with the mission and vision aspect of strategic direction setting. Or they are created as an afterthought. Instead, your values creation should be created in a dedicated process.
Start With Who You Admire.
Patrick Lencioni has a few prompting questions in his Team Effectiveness Exercises that can easily be applied to creating your organizational values. Open your facilitation meeting with the following questions:
“Who in our organization, past or present, embodies the best things about our organization?”
“What are 3-4 values or traits that make them so admired?”
Call out unwanted behaviors
Conversely, it’s also helpful to call out values that don’t align to the mission and vision. Run a similar exercise that identifies current behaviors that foster values that don’t serve the organization
