In the article “How to link personal values with team values” it talks about understanding the difference between personal values and team values. Companies Levi Strauss, AT&T, and Nordstrom conducted research to see the desired values and commitment to strategy goals. They found that some core values are integrity, competence, teamwork, and communication. When I was in my workplace over summer, these values were critical as we wanted everyone to feel like they all mattered. Having these values made us all a better team together and we got to meet each other’s standards which gave us successful days. Assessing techniques for personal and team values is also very important. This involves workplaces using surveys to identify different things that are important. In the article you learn how to conduct a values workshop. Over Summer, at a training, I shared my values with my team to then learn theirs. This allowed us to create a list of shared values we have together which allowed us to learn more about each other. Not only did this grow a bond between some people, we got to see the goals people wanted to accomplish while working. When creating values, it is important to make a list of each value. This can create a clear understanding for people who may not understand it. While working, we created a list of all the values we carry when we are an employee and what each value represents. This made us realize how we are not only impacting ourselves or each other, but all the families we made bonds with over the course of the ten weeks, and how we can reach their standard of values.
