The enforcement record
What actually happens when a value is breached, including by someone valuable — which is where the value is either established or revealed as decoration.
The deliverable
What it is
Values are established at departure rather than at induction. What happens to a high performer who breaches one is the organisation’s actual values statement, and everyone reads it.
The record exists because these events are the most watched and least documented things an organisation does.

The other components in core values
The value set
The three or four commitments themselves, each with what it rules out — because a value that excludes nothing is an adjective.
LearnThe price paid
The occasions where holding the value cost the organisation something — because a value that has never cost anything has never been tested.
