Sharing Core Values
24/06/11: I was reading some posts by several of the world’s most successful business people and was struck by the similar theme running through their words. They all testify that the biggest insurance policy of any successful love or business relationship is to have the same matching core values. You can’t change someone. Maybe flip them 25 degrees - but ultimately they won’t change. If they don’t mirror the same levels of integrity, honour and honesty as you, you can never hope to become a true partnership. You have to be on the same page from the start with the most basic and the most important of values. I turned a personal and business relationship down last month for the same reasons.
It made good sense to me – you?
