E28: Why [Clear] Core Values Are a Game Changer

When used correctly, company core values are an absolute game changer.

 

Some great examples:

 

Amazon: Customer obsession; Hire the best; …

Meta: Move fast; Focus on long-term impact; …

Our own: Focus on impact; Enjoy the journey; …

 

By making “Customer obsession” a core value for Amazon, Jeff Bezos didn’t need to be in every meeting. His leaders and teams would understand to always prioritize the customer experience over other concerns.

 

When Facebook changed their core values from “Move fast and break things” to “Move fast” and “Focus on long-term impact”, everyone was clear on how they should act.

 

When used well, these values will help everyone to make better decisions, from deciding who to hire to deciding where to have your annual off-site.

 

And in doing so, they remove a lot of stress and conflict.

 

In today’s episode of De-stress Your Business, we dive deeper into why core values are such a game changer.
