If you want me to defend something, you have to first define it.

3 Reasons why defining culture is important – they should be different than Church Values

  1. If you don’t define it, it’s going to get hijacked
  2. It leads to healthier hires in your organization (Character, Contempency, Chemistry and even Culture)
  3. You can create a value to strengthen a weakness (all of your leadership dysfunction is going to seep down)

  2. Icons help
  3. Make them visible in every staff environment
