How to Align Your Values with Your Organization’s Values as an Effective Leader

  One of the important tasks of an effective leader is to clearly recognize their own values and align them with the values of their organization. Values are the criteria that indicate what you value, what you find meaningful, and what goals you pursue. Values influence your behavior and choices, and also play a big role in your success and satisfaction.

The Importance of Values for Individuals and Organizations

 In order to be a meaningful existence in society, an organization must have values. The values of an organization provide the direction and philosophy for achieving the vision and goals of the organization. The values of an organization are also the principles that the members of the organization should share and practice. Similarly, individuals should also be aware of their own values. The values of individuals do not have to match perfectly with the values of the organization, but they should be harmonious in the journey towards performance. Otherwise, individuals may feel frustrated and unable to achieve results.

The Conflict between Strengths and Values

 Sometimes there may be a conflict between one’s strengths and values. This can happen especially when one feels that the work they are good at does not contribute to society or is not worth devoting their life to. In such a situation, what criteria should one look for?

 In successful career management, values should be the ultimate evaluation criterion beyond one’s strengths. People who know their strengths, how to improve their performance, and their values should be able to decide ‘where they belong’ and also ‘where they do not belong’. For example, if someone realizes that they cannot perform well in a large organization, they should reject an offer from a large organization. Because that organization is not where they belong. Also, if someone recognizes that they are not a decision-maker, they should be prepared to clearly reject a task that requires decision-making ability.

The Strategy for Successful Career Management Based on Values

 A successful career is not something that can be obtained by a simple plan. You need to know your strengths, how you work, and your values. Only then can you make the most of the opportunities given to you. People who have this self-awareness can build a successful career.

 In order to manage your career successfully, it is important to increase your self-awareness, identify your strengths and values, and establish a strategy that aligns with the values of your organization. You should also constantly seek ways to improve your skills and performance, and demonstrate leadership that always grows. Through these efforts and self-development, I hope you will create a successful career management and a better future.

Values are the criteria that indicate what you value, what you find meaningful, and what goals you pursue.
