In this episode, we explore the crucial role of core values in management. Defining and communicating core values may seem challenging but is essential for aligning the entire team. Core values establish a foundation for behavior and performance, ensuring consistent expectations.
Our guest, Debbie Newhouse, LVT, MBA, CVPM, a hospital administrator in Nebraska, shares her journey of integrating core values into her management approach. By associating specific behaviors and actions with each core value, her team clearly understands what is expected. Debbie emphasizes the importance of embedding core values into interviews, onboarding, daily operations, and leadership training.
Frequent communication is key. Debbie’s insights show how regular discussions about core values foster a cohesive, motivated team dedicated to shared standards and goals.
