Description
Clarify the 4-5 core values that drive your decisions, shape your leadership, and anchor your business, so you can move forward with integrity and alignment.
Defining our values helps us to create guard rails around what type of work we want to be doing. It is the foundation for the boundaries we need to set and helps to narrow in on what will provide meaning in our lives.

What are your top 3-5 core values? These are the ideals you value most in life (see list above for examples).
Define what each one means to you, and how it shows up in the way you live your life or the priorities you choose.
What do you think your core values mean for your career or workplace culture? Is your current job, or a certain aspect of your life, violating any core values?
How can you bring more of those words into your life?
