Top 5 Reasons Why Core Values Can Make Or Break Your Business

Drewbie Wilson • July 25, 2022

"Core values are the foundation that a business is built on."

Do you have a set of core values for your business? If not, you could be missing out on a key element that could make or break your company.


I am a believer that core values are everything when it comes to a business.


I have seen businesses with amazing products and services fail because they did not live by their core values. On the other hand, I have seen businesses with mediocre products and services succeed because they had strong core values and they lived by them.


Core values are the foundation that a business is built on. They provide guidance and direction for employees, help to make decisions when faced with difficult choices, and create a culture within the workplace.


And while they may seem like simple concepts, they can have a profound impact on the success or failure of a business.


Here are the top 5 reasons why I believe that core values can make or break your business:


1. Core values provide guidance and direction for employees

When faced with difficult choices, employees need to be able to refer back to the core values of the company to make the best decision for the business. If there are no core values in place, employees will be left feeling lost and confused, which can lead to frustration and resentment.


So, it is important that employees are aware of the core values of the company, and that they feel comfortable referring back to them when necessary.


2. Core values help to make decisions when faced with difficult choices

If a business is faced with a difficult decision, the core values should be used as a guide to help make that decision. Without core values, businesses can easily become lost and make decisions that are not in line with their long-term goals. And, when faced with difficult choices, businesses need to be able to make decisions quickly and confidently.


3. Core values create a culture within the workplace

The culture of a workplace is very important because it can have a big impact on the morale and productivity of employees. If the core values of a company are not in line with the culture of the workplace, it can create a hostile or toxic environment.


On the other hand, if the core values of a company are aligned with the culture of the workplace, it can help to create a positive and productive environment. And we want our employees to be happy and productive!


4. Core values can help to attract and retain employees

If a business has strong core values, it will be more attractive to potential employees because they will know that the company is built on a solid foundation. And, once they are employed, they will be more likely to stay with the company because they feel aligned with its values.


Employees want to work for a company that has a strong set of values that they can believe in. So, not only can strong core values help to attract employees, but they can also help to retain them.


5. Core values can help to build customer loyalty

Customers are more likely to be loyal to a company that has values that align with their own. If a company's core values are in line with its customers' values, it is more likely to build a strong relationship with them and create a loyal customer base.


As you can see, core values are very important to the success of a business. They provide guidance and direction, help to make decisions, create a positive workplace culture, attract and retain employees, and build customer loyalty. All of these things are essential for any business that wants to be successful and thrive.


If you have not yet identified what your core values are, I encourage you to do so as soon as possible and define the core values of your business. They could be the difference between success and failure. And, once you have identified your core values, make sure that you are living by them in all aspects of your business.
