Why Your Core Values Aren't Working

Welcome back, friends! In this episode of the Grounding and Growing Leadership Podcast, Tara is joined by co-host Stephanie Theisen, to dive into what it really takes to make Core Values more than just words on a wall. They explore how many organizations underutilize their values after creation, and why clarity, alignment, and even tension between values can actually strengthen culture.  They also unpack practical ways to bring values to life, from leadership alignment and hiring to performance conversations and team connection, especially in today’s hybrid work environments. Join us for this important discussion! Registration for our next Grounded Leadership cohort is now open!  Registration for our next Growth-Focused Leader cohort is now pen!  At the Grounding and Growing Leadership podcast, we believe everyone is a leader and that leadership starts with you.
