An Overview of Company Values

Coming up with good company values is hard. We've put together this extensive list of over 130 examples of good company values to help.

We've also compiled an awesome downloadable toolkit to help you choose the right values for your organization.

Just download the toolkit, select the categories that are most important to you, then build out your own set of core values.

This list of examples of company values should be used in conjunction with our guide to writing good company values, which is part of our overall guide to strategic planning.

Not only have we put together over 130 company values - we've also provided an inspiring write-up for each one that you can use within your own organization. We sorted our examples of company values into categories to help you build your own.
