EP #238: Mission, Vision, Values, Generosity
Your mission, vision, and values should be generous.
These three things are critical tools for a business. I can’t minimize whatsoever but I would like to stress the importance that generosity has on them. If you want to build great culture you should start as early as possible.
Generosity is a key point to include in these items that lead a company. You’re “why”, “what”, and “how” will go a long what if they have undertones of giving.
This episode highlights some reasons why the big three are important but it stresses the importance of the big one.
Listen in for insights on how to incorporate generosity in the drivers of your company.
Have a generous rest of your week. 😀
