Your company values mean nothing :)
Okay, values are great and you SHOULD have them. But the words on your wall don’t mean anything until they show up in how people actually behave!
You can put “we value innovation” on all the swag you want. But if someone brings a new idea to a meeting and it gets shot down, people learn pretty fast that the real value is “don’t rock the boat.”
Your culture isn’t just what you say it is. It’s how work actually gets done (and what you let slide).
New hires catch it faster than anyone. You tell them in the interview that you love fresh thinking, and a week in someone pulls them aside with the classic “yeah, we don’t really do that here.” 🥲
A workshop won’t fix it 🌝 A new list of values won’t either! It comes down to what you actually reward and put up with day to day.
Full breakdown in this week’s Locker Room Chat!!
