Values Matter

GWA takes personal values very seriously. A person’s reputation and honesty is all that anyone really has, and is what will be remembered by those who have known you after you pass. There is nothing more important in life than taking personal accountability for ourselves and our actions. It is the only way that humans can grow positively. These values are the foundation of GWA, and inherent in everything done here.

We operate by three value principles: Treat others the way you would like to be treated, always tell the truth, and always be a person of integrity.

Values are important because they serve as a guiding principle for an organization or an individual. Missions define the purpose and goals of an organization, while values reflect the beliefs and principles that drive its behavior. These elements provide direction and focus, helping to align decision making and actions with the overall objectives of the organization.

When everyone in an organization is working towards a common directive, there is a greater sense of purpose and unity. A clear mission and values can help build trust with stakeholders, such as customers, employees, and shareholders, by demonstrating a commitment to ethical and responsible behavior. Having a well-defined mission and values can also create a positive workplace culture, as employees are more likely to feel fulfilled and engaged when their work aligns with their personal beliefs and values.

Mission and values matter because they provide direction, promote accountability, and foster a sense of purpose and unity.
