Values-based leadership begins with identifying core values. Core values are the basic
principles which we have chosen to guide our actions. Core values define beliefs,
standards, and acceptable behaviours. Once determined and communicated throughout
the organization, the values guide and govern the decisions and actions of the
individuals and the organization. The core values shape the organizational culture and
the behaviour and actions of all who are associated with that organization. Core values
provide the framework for decisions, priorities, and actions.
24. The four values of Disney: Safety, Courtesy, The Show, and
Efficiency are known and understood by all employees. Furthermore,
they are rank ordered so that they can clearly guide the actions and
decisions of everyone throughout the Disney organization.

Creativity is the spark that propels projects forward and that captures

base must be so ingrained and integrated into their being that they
become ‘transparent’, focusing on the employee and what she/he needs to
learn, versus focusing on the knowledge base.
c) Commitment: A manager is committed to the success of the project and
of all team members. She/he holds the vision for the collective team and
moves the team closer to the end result.
28. d) Being Human: Employees value leaders who are human and who
don't hide behind their authority. The best leaders are those who aren't
afraid to be themselves.
e)Versatility: Flexibility and versatility are valuable qualities in a
manager. Beneath the flexibility and versatility is an ability to be both
non-reactive and not attached to how things have to be.

what one pays attention to. Discipline as self-mastery can be
exhilarating! Role model the ability to live from your intention
consistently and you'll role model an important leadership quality.
