Stop by Cube Rules today and read Scott Herrick's post Value Must Precede Success.
In the bustle of business we sometimes forget our grounding -- the reason we are in business -- and the way we want to conduct our lives.
Sure you can have a business (and a life) without value, but for how long, and at what personal and professional cost?
At Executive Power Brand, my passion is to work with leaders who consciously practice value as a goal -- in business and in life. Value is in their DNA. It's who they are -- an authentic part of their personal brand -- and it touches everyone they manage, the products or services the company sells, and the world in which they live. You might be surprised at how many of these great leaders exist in the corporate jungle, quietly and powerfully doing the right thing, everyday -- and leading highly successful companies or divisons.
Scott's post is an apt reminder of value's reach. It touches every part of life and business. With value, purpose meets passion and profit follows.
Can committed and passionate leaders instill a value proposition throughout the organization? Over at Chief Executive Robert M Donnelly explores how Apple, Costco, and FedEx have built value into their products, people, and customer interactions. Their corporate DNA is built around an implied promise of value, and their brands are wildly successful in their markets.
Without value can true personal and business success be achieved? Without value does success have real meaning? What do you think?
