The basic values of a company, also known as core values, are more important than ever in the age of digitalization. They are considered internal and external success facts and can clearly distinguish a company from its competitors. But what exactly are company values and which of these values are really significant? We'll tell you and show you how to put your company - no matter how many employees it has or how much revenue it generates - on a new path to success with the right values.
Basically, values can be defined first of all as desirable or morally good qualities. They can be established not only by individuals or groups, but also by companies. From these characteristics, behavioral patterns and standards of action are derived which, at best, every employee implements on a daily basis - from the Managing Director to the intern. Values are particularly important in companies, because this is where a wide range of different personality types to pull together in the same direction. Guiding principles and core values provide the right direction and serve as a valuable source of orientation.
But corporate values are not only signposts, they also strengthen credibility and trust in a company. Because those who take a stand and present a crystal-clear stance come across as strong and trustworthy. Thus, positive corporate values can improve the image - both internally and externally. Because on the one hand a company convinces potential new customers with its values, on the other hand it becomes interesting for qualified employees. And in times of a shortage of skilled workers, companies benefit enormously from optimizing their image as an employer. The results of strong corporate values are therefore identification, Motivation and growth.
A close look at the external portrayals of various companies reveals that certain values are consistently very popular. Companies seem to particularly like to adorn themselves with the following values: Appreciation, cohesion, development, innovation, creativity, productivity, efficiency and growth. Only in terms of weighting do the companies differ enormously: while some see creative work as particularly important, for example, efficiency is what counts most for others. The differences can be attributed to company size, goals, industry and similar factors. No wonder, because a ten-person creative agency naturally has different core values than a large technology group with several thousand employees.
