Option A

If you were unable to gather the requested information or are launching a new company (potentially your own) and couldn’t create a list, this exercise will help you get started. Review the list on the next page and identify the values that resonate with your company. There are blank spaces available for you to add your own ideas.

To make this process manageable, approach it in stages. First, select up to 10 values. In the next round, narrow it down to five. Finally, review the list one last time to pinpoint your top three values.
