Building values fromlived organizational experience
Rather than importing a value set from outside, Renault Mais surfaced and consolidated its values through employee participation — validated organization-wide.
The Context
The goal was to surface and consolidate organizational values through employee participation, rather than imposing a value set externally.
What We Understood
Values become more credible when employees can recognize their actual organizational experience inside them.
The process therefore needed to surface what was already being lived across different groups.
What We Designed
Facilitated focus-group / workshop-style sessions
Exploration of existing value themes
Consolidation of themes emerging from different groups
Organization-wide internal voting / validation
