VALUE OF INDIVIDUALS

All of us as individuals have values that we live by. We learn these values from our environment:  our families, schools, religious institutions, and other organizations that have meaning for us. Organizations have values as well, and the best of these come out of interaction with the organization’s environment and reflect how the organization aspires interact with the community, its customers, or other key constituencies.
