Build a Thriving Culture Around Core Values

On average, businesses that follow the EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) Process grow their revenue by 18% per year, according to its founder and author of Traction, Gino Wickman. The EOS system includes six key components, starting with clarifying your organization’s vision. As the book outlines, the first critical step is to answer the question “What are Your Core Values?”

 

Why are Core Values Important?

Hickman points out in Traction, that unfortunately most organizations have not defined their core values, and the resultant lack of clarity hinders their growth. Alternatively, organizations who have defined their core values and built a culture around them, have successfully endured some of the most challenging of times, including recessions and depressions (we might also predict pandemics).

 

He stresses that creating core values as the first step in clarifying your VISION is important because:

 

  • They define your culture and who you truly are as people
  • They serve as a small set of vital and timeless guiding principles for your company
  • When they are clear, you’ll find you attract like-minded people to your organization
  • When applied in your organization, they will weed out the people that don’t fit
  • Once defined, you must hire, fire, review, and recognize people based on these core values

 

In the Traction book, he outlines an easy and effective four step process for how leadership teams can easily discover their core values (get a free copy of the book here).

 

In short," he states,it doesn’t matter what you core values are as much as it does that you’ve clearly defined them as an organization. Only then can you truly surround yourself with the people who will prepare your organization for growth.”

 

As part of Avea's implementation of EOS, we recently redefined our core values and made a cultural shift. Click here to learn how we did it.
