Dr Paul Ward is a founding member of The Values Collaborative, a USA-based network of experienced values professionals certified in the application of Cultural Transformation Tools (CTT), developed by Richard Barrett & Associates for corporate culture, team effectiveness, leadership, mergers and acquisitions, coaching, community consensus, and whole system change. The mission of The Values Collaborative is to strengthen leaders, organizations, and communities through values alignment in order to empower each individual, each organization, and each community to reach their highest potential. We envision a world where people live by principles that recognize the contribution and value we each bring to a workplace or community. We work in partnership with our clients to foster an environment that respects and nourishes each person.
Cultural transformation is the fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of organizational culture to achieve dramatic improvements in critical measures of performance. Visionary organizations know that organizational transformation begins with personal transformation. Organizations don’t transform. People do. Visionary organizations develop systems and processes which reinforce community values and promote a shift from self-interest to the common good.
Long-lasting, successful organizations have strong corporate identities and positive values-driven cultures. They focus on human capacity building. These organizations create cultures where employees are encouraged to become all they can become and where employees can make a direct connection between their work and the organization’s mission.
The focus of The Values Collaborative is on creating values-driven environments that deliver high performance in individuals, teams, and organizations. Paul is a master facilitator with expertise in high impact consulting interventions that enable effective, values-driven strategy deployment with high levels of people engagement, delivering rapid improvements in performance and culture.
Personal values include: compassion, interdependence, trust, goals orientation, learning and education, and making a difference.
Paul has a passion for helping individual and organizational clients illuminate their vision, mission, goals, values, and behaviors. Individual values drive individual behaviors, which in turn drive individual performance and, ultimately, organizational performance
