Are your values limiting you?

Investigate the Motivation Theory

Human decision-making is fundamentally based on values. We feel liberated when an organization's culture coincides with our personal values. We have the freedom to bring our entire selves to work.

  • Values can constrain us and our advancement,' according to another concept. However, it is simple to ingest as you read.

What are Potentially Limiting Values?

Commitment, honesty, transparency, creativity, friendship, love, and other positive values exist. There are also other behaviours that go along with them. Other behaviours, such as straightforward and internal competition in an organisation, are driven by various elements of our psychological being, the worries of the ego, which motivates us to do things like jealousy. Now, some potentially limiting values are always potentially limiting

Invention of Potentially Limiting Values

During The xMonks Drive conversation led by Gaurav Arora, Richard clarified the meaning of potentially limiting values. A term exclusively coined by Richard that is now a corporate culture talk of organisational functioning.

"Yeah, this is something I invented 25 years ago. And I realised that there are positive values. I’ll name just a few commitment, honesty, transparency, creativity, friendship, love, etc. But then, there are others and then there are certain behaviours that go with those. Now, there are other behaviours, which are driven by different parts of our psychic entity, the fears of the ego, which causes us to do things like plain and internal competition in an organisation, jealousy. Now, some potentially limiting values are always potentially limiting.

So for example, blame is almost always potentially limiting. Because when you do that, when you behave in that way, use that value, it creates separation. And, and separation means that you’re not going to get along with people. So that’s why I call these limiting values potentially limiting And we don’t know exactly how limiting them until we realise that we’re actually operating with these limiting values and we’ve taken a good solid look at ourselves and go, Wow, yeah, that really is potentially limiting", replied Richard.

So to name a few Positive Values and Potentially Limiting Values, here they are-

Positive Values- Honest, Integrity, Openness, Equality, Creativity, Human Rights, etc.

Limiting Values- Bureaucracy, Power, Status, Manipulation, Greed, Blame, etc.

Values, Needs and Motivation

Maslow claimed that human needs may be structured into a hierarchy in order to better understand what motivates human beings. When a lower need is met, we shift our attention to the next need in the hierarchy.

The needs are as follows, from the bottom of the hierarchy up:

  • Physiological (food, water, clothing, and shelter),

  • safety (job security, emotional well-being, health security, and financial security),

  • love and belonging needs (friendship, spouse love),

  • esteem (self-confidence and freedom), and

  • self-actualization

Individuals must attend to lower-level demands before they can attend to higher-level requirements.

The Theory of Motivation

Our beliefs are always aimed toward meeting our needs, and our motives are always driven by our needs.

"When a company's values are aligned with employees' aspirational values, the consequence is consistently good results."

When an organization's beliefs are in sync, it can recruit and retain brilliant employees while also building a strong brand.
