In the latest episode of the Lead the Way blog series from Landscapes Golf Management, Tom Everett, President of LGM, discusses the critical role that company values play in driving business success. He emphasizes that having a well-defined value system, whether reflecting past practices or shaping future aspirations, is essential for guiding day-to-day operations.
Tom advises businesses to memorialize their core values in writing, suggesting that four to six authentic and comprehensive values are ideal. He also highlights the importance of integrating these values into the employee recruitment and onboarding processes, ensuring they are consistently reinforced throughout an employee’s career. Examples include distributing value cards or including them in onboarding videos.
Lastly, Tom stresses the need to keep these values visible and active within the organization by recognizing employees who demonstrate them in their work. At Landscapes Golf Management, values not only unite the team but also set them apart in the industry.
