In this series, we’re discussing the importance of developing, communicating and instilling core values into your organization. In Deuteronomy 6, God gave directions to the Israelites on how to instill His values into the hearts of children.
The second directive God gave the Israelites is stated in Deuteronomy 6:8. In this verse, God said, “Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.”
The principle we can derive from this verse that can be applied to business is the importance of personal and physical reminders.
If you desire your values to be embraced, it’s helpful for them to become personal for your staff. Some ideas include: having staff members recite the values at staff meetings, and/or recognize an employee when they model one of your values.
If you have creative ways that you’ve instilled values in your organization please email me your ideas at rick@unconventionalbusiness.org.
