They are the ideals that are most important to a person or organization and are foundational for the creation of mission and vision statements. The display of uncompromised core values brings genuine credibility to an organization.

In short, the vision of an organization must be accountable to established values. Some of the values that organizations choose include respect, life-long learning, commitment to excellence, stewardship, creativity, integrity, ethical practices, service, volunteerism, wisdom, personal development, simplicity, leadership development, cultural sensitivity, and loyalty.
