- - - - Core values educate clients and potential customers about what the company is about and clarify the identity of the company.
      - Core values are becoming primary recruiting and retention tools. With the ease of researching companies, job seekers are doing their homework on the identities of the companies
      - Core values help companies in the decision-making processes.
        
        For example, if one of your core values is to stand behind the quality of your products, any products not reaching the satisfactory standard are automatically eliminated.
    - - Core values are what support the vision, shape the culture and reflect what the company values.
      - Many companies focus mostly on the technical competencies but often forget what are the underlying competencies that make their companies run smoothly — core values
    - - Select 5-7 people who have a gut-level understanding of your core values
        
        • Would you want the organization to continue to hold these values, even if at some point, they became a competitive disadvantage?
        
        • If you were to start a new organization tomorrow in a different line of work, would you build the core values into the new organization regardless of its activities?
        
        Can you envision these values being as valid 100 years from now as they are today?
        
        • If you woke up tomorrow morning with enough money to retire for the rest of your life, would you continue to hold on to these core values?

        What's Needed to Make OKRs Work
        
        • Focus: when you're using OKRs, you need to set clear priorities and focus on your organization's objectives. So you need to decide what goals are important for chieving those objectives, and concentrate on these.
        
        • Numbers-driven: as with any effective goal-setting tool, progress must be measurable. 7
        
        • Transparency: the point of OKRs is get everyone pulling in the same direction to meet your organization's overall mission and vision . So it's important that everyone can see everyone else's OKRs. For example, Google includes OKRs in its staff biographies.
        
        • Culture: OKRs have to become part of your organization's culture, and be embedded into your team's routine. Tracking OKRs regularly is key to achieving their desired results (we explore this further in Step 4 of How to Use OKRs, below).
