Evidence on the impact of organisational values and behaviours

Kate

I'm about to embark on a piece of work to define and embed values and behaviours across our charity of c. 300 people. Before I get started, I'd like to find some evidence of whether organisations that explicitly define and apply values and behaviours actually notice any difference. It could be via productivity measures, workforce engagement or satisfaction, attrition, etc. 

I understand that when executed badly, the impact can actually be negative. But assuming an organisation adopts good practice, what difference does it make then? 

Does anyone know of any recent research conducted in this area? Thanks.

  • Hi Kate, it does makes a difference, gradually .. for instance, we've got values pasted on walls but it was only last year (2018) that we decided to carry out a deliberate campaign to sink such into the subconsciousness of employees. One key thing that we are keen on is Compliance and people are beginning to ask question to ensure that they are doing the right thing. We are encouraging staff to look at the other values and leave up to them.
