Choosing Good Values: from Mark Manson
Good values are (1) reality-based, (2) socially constructive, (3) immediate and controllable. Bad values are (1) superstitious, (2) socially destructive, and (2) not immediate or controllable. - Mark Manson
When setting the Core Values of your organization, finding the right values is absolutely essential. Are your values controllable? Do your people have the choice to meet those values? Can you teach, monitor, and assess those values?

Assessment Drives Behavior: from Joseph Grenny
A measure won't drive behavior if it doesn't maintain attention, and it certainly won't maintain attention if it's rarely assessed. - Joseph Grenny, et al.
As a leader, do your methods match your mission, and does your mission match your methods? Are you assessing the things you say you care about, or is what you actually care about being driven by the things you actually assess?
