Values Formation

WHAT IS VALUES
FORMATION?
VALUES FORMATION
• is the confluence of our personal
experiences and particular culture
we are entwined in. Values are
imposed from our family in
childhood and reinforced through
culture and life experiences.
WHAT IS
VALUES?
VALUES
• are individual beliefs that
motivate people to act one
way or another. They serve
as a guide for human
behavior.
TYPES OF VALUES
• INDIVIDUAL VALUES
Individual values reflect how you show up
in your life and your specific needs-the
principles you live by and what you
consider important for your self-interest.
Individual values include: enthusiasm,
creativity, humility and personal
fulfillment.
TYPES OF VALUES
• RELATIONSHIP VALUES
Relationship values reflect how you
relate to other people in your life, be
they friends, family or colleagues in
your organization. Relationship values
include: openness, trust, generosity and
caring.
TYPES OF VALUES
• ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES
Organizational values reflect how
your organization shows up and
operates in the world.
Organizational values include:
financial growth, teamwork,
productivity and strategic alliances.
TYPES OF VALUES
• SOCIETAL VALUES
Societal values reflect how you or
your organization relates to society.
Societal values include: future
generations, environmental
awareness, ecology and
sustainability.
Conflict Values
• Relationship Conflicts
- occur because of the presence of strong negative
emotions, misperceptions or stereotypes, poor
communication or miscommunication, or repetitive
negative behaviors. Relationship problems often fuel
disputes and lead to an unnecessary escalating spiral of
destructive conflict. Supporting the safe and balanced
expression of perspectives and emotions for
acknowledgment (not agreement) is one effective
approach to managing relational conflict.
Conflict Values
• Data Conflicts
- occur when people lack information necessary
to make wise decisions, are misinformed,
disagree on which data is relevant, interpret
information differently, or have competing
assessment procedures. Some data conflicts may
be unnecessary since they are caused by poor
communication between the people in conflict.
Conflict Values
• Interest Conflicts
- are caused by competition over
perceived incompatible needs.
Conflicts of interest result when one or
more of the parties believe that in order
to satisfy his or her needs, the needs
and interests of an opponent must be
sacrificed.
Conflict Values
• Structural Conflicts
- are caused by forces external to the people in
dispute. Limited physical resources or authority,
geographic constraints (distance or proximity),
time (too little or too much), organizational
changes, and so forth can make structural
conflict seem like a crisis. It can be helpful to
assist parties in conflict to appreciate the
external forces and constraints bearing upon
them.
Conflict Values
• Value Conflicts
- are caused by perceived or actual
incompatible belief systems. Values are
beliefs that people use to give meaning to
their lives. Values explain what is "good" or
"bad," "right" or "wrong," "just" or
"unjust." Differing values need not cause
conflict. People can live together in
harmony with different value systems.
What is self-concept?
• Self-concept is the image that we have of
ourselves.
• Self-concept is generally thought of as our
individual perceptions of our behavior,
abilities, and unique characteristics—a mental
picture of who you are as a person.
• Self-concept tends to be more malleable when
people are younger and still going through the
process of self-discovery and identity
formation.
What is self-awareness?
• Self-awareness is the capacity that a person has to
introspect.
• It includes gaining an understanding of and insight
into one’s strengths, qualities, weaknesses, defects,
ideas, thoughts, beliefs, ideals, responses, reactions,
attitude, emotions and motivations.
• Thus introspection also includes assessing how one is
perceived by others and
• How others are impacted based on one’s behavior,
responses and conduct.
TYPES OF SELF-AWARENESS
• Public Self-Awareness: This type
emerges when people are aware of how
they appear to others. Public self-
awareness often emerges in situations
when people are at the center of attention,
such as when giving a presentation or
talking to a group of friends. This type of
self-awareness often compels people to
adhere to social norms.
TYPES OF SELF-AWARENESS
• Private Self-Awareness: This type
happens when people become aware
of some aspects of themselves, but
only in a private way.
