CORE VALUES
A set of Beliefs, Principles and Values that guide an organization's path
Core Values serve as the conscience of an organization. They are the manifestation of the belief systems by which the organization will be led. When companies deviate from their core values they compromise the sustainability of the organization and damage the culture. Groove Management has helped many organizations to define, refine, re-define and operationalize their core values. This process helps build organizational alignment and culture.
Kelly Schick, Chief People Officer at C4 Therapeutics explains their partnership with Groove Management.
“Brian and Groove Management were the perfect partner to support building our core values. Brian challenged us to get creative, but stay true to who we are. As an organization, we are thrilled to have core values that inherently feel like us. I look forward to continuing to leverage the expertise of Groove Management as we grow the organization and build our Company culture.”

The Clear Link Between Core Values and Employee Engagement
All organizations need highly engaged employees to create a competitive advantage in the marketplace. A commitment to core values is clearly a driver of employee engagement. A valueless organization cannot have a high level of employee engagement. We believe that it is never too late for an organization to commit to a set of core values and to shift the culture. It has to start at the top. The senior team must align around a set of values, begin to walk the talk and then drive the values into the organization.
Our Approach
We begin by facilitating a senior team workshop to either review the current values or to create a new set of core values. Through a highly engaging set of exercises and discussions, the leadership team builds a set of core values for the organization. These values are then shared with a broader group of employees during focus groups to test the values and gain further input and feedback. Once fully refined, the real work begins. Operationalizing the core values is more important than the creation process.
