Listen in, as Michelle and Danielle debate on whether your organisations values should be hung on the wall!

Do you have your organisational values proudly displayed on the wall? Do you actively talk about them? And more importantly - do they ever change?

In this episode of The NFP CEO, we take a step-by-step approach into the real meaning behind organisational values and how they shape culture, behaviour, and decision-making.

Our co-host, Michelle shares insights from a recent experience helping an organisation redefine their values and the powerful impact it had.

Key Takeaways:

✅ Values should be more than words—they should drive behaviour.

✅ Ask the critical question: What does this value mean in practice?

✅ Values define what we do and what we don’t do—one organisation set “no gossiping” as a non-negotiable under their transparency value.

✅ A strong values-based culture supports psychological safety, accountability, and a learning mindset.

✅ Leaders play a key role by speaking up, modelling behaviours, and even owning their mistakes.

Before you ask marketing to paint values on the wall, tune in to explore how to make your values meaningful, shape a culture of integrity, and create a workplace where people feel safe to speak up.
