Organisational values consist of enduring and indispensable tenets which underpin organisational culture and form the foundation for an organisation’s purpose and goals. It should represent a unique set of collectively shared values, which silently gives direction to the multitude of decisions to be made on a daily basis within the organisational domain.

The challenge therefore still remains for organisations to not only articulate their values, but rather focus on inculcating and, in actuality, living these values, thereby making them a business ‘weapon’ - a powerful source to be reckoned with.
