Managing by values
Characteristic
Managing by values (MBV) creates the framework for today's leaders and
managers. MBV method is important in the management of organizations in a complex
environment. The issue of values was previously considered "too soft" to be turned into a serious
approach to management, now it turned into a central part in discussions about strategy and
organizational changes. Focusing on the key values has become necessary to carry out
organizational change.
The values should be the focus on issues related to organizational change, as well as in the whole
practice of management. In some of the world's emerging economies, MBV is fast becoming a
major force for the rebuilding of sustainable and competitive culture.
MBV can be defined as both a philosophy and practice of management, it focuses on the key
values of the organization and their consistency with the objectives.
Scientific studies have confirmed that the key to understanding the behavior of complex systems
is to understand the values that each of them contains. System values are motivators that shape
the behavior of individuals, organizations and society.
Management by values for the employees involves working with the process of meeting
the needs and their dignity at the same time. The company forms self-control teams and personal
self-control environment. It raises the quality of work and increases the identification and loyalty
to the company.
MBV uses following tools:
Company mission
Vision
The values important to the company - Code of Value
Pragmatic spirituality
Pragmatic spirituality encompasses both psychotherapy and spiritual practice. Both aim to help
us access deeper, more mature, and truer understandings and skills with the aim to increase
happiness and well-being. The human being develops psychologically and spiritually and
these two developments intertwine into one psycho-spiritual process. So, psychotherapy can be
understood as an essential spiritual practice clearing the runway for take-off, so to speak. But
there are also differences between psychotherapy and intentional spiritual work. Psychology is
about personal and social experience, catching in its net the dualistic world of individual
experience in a separate world.
People, in modern times are in acute need of peace and happiness. Many materialistic approaches
in society have been tried to achieve this but they created more problems than they solved. The
materialistic models have gifted the humanity, problems like stress tension, frustration,
depression, diabetes, heart diseases and many psychosomatic diseases. The so-called prosperous
western countries are not necessarily happy. These models have hit hard on psychological as
well as physical well being of the human race. Drug addiction in almost all strata of society in
general and youth in particular has increased. Intolerance and haste is cannibalizing our
psychological system. Though there is large amount of empirical data available to support this
claim but the purpose of this paper in not to provide statistical evidence of human suffering
which the world is witnessing. Sole purpose of this paper is to narrate the fact that materialistic
approaches have not given sustainable models ensuring happiness and bliss with material
progress. As a matter of fact the human race does not want material progress at the cost of health
and peace. Therefore the world, particularly corporate world is turning towards spirituality.
Spiritual columns in newspapers and popular magazines stand testimony to this.
Spiritual corporate culture
In this section, I discuss the importance of corporate culture as a natural path whereby spiritual
and humanistic concerns may be explored. Thus, it is worth remembering that corporate culture
is a by-product of the deeply held values and beliefs shared by the members of an organization.
As such, corporate culture guides organizational mission and values and by probing them one
can find what sort of purpose it pursues. As for the spiritual approach, it may likely flourish in
organizational settings where the leaderships are searching for
(1) The betterment of society and
(2) Caring about other things than just economic value.
In other words, workplace spirituality apparently derives from work settings where employees
may express feelings of an inner life, sense of community, and are committed to meaningful
work.
Spirituality plays a key role in shaping the lives of people. Workplace spirituality creates better
working environment in organization. People have started looking for meaning in life as well as
in their work. The technology driven economy has satisfied the material needs but has given
birth to a rat race resulting in to values bankruptcy at personal as well as organizational level.
Values are imperative to spirituality. When personal values are aligned with organizational
values the effectiveness of organization increases manifolds. If people and organizations practice
and promote values and spirituality it can bring charismatic results in the personal and well as
workplace life. Concern of spirituality is exploration of self and self-realization where as concern
of workplace spirituality is to create a humane organization, which is productive and effective.
Though the concept of workplace spirituality in modern organizations and its implementation are
in the nascent stage of development.

Purpose
The mission statement guides the day-to-day operations and decision-making of the organization.
It helps in tactical planning and "rallying the troops" around a common near- to medium-term
goal. The mission statement helps members of the organization get on the same page on what
they should do and how they should do it.
The vision statement is, in a sense, loftier. It outlines the worldview of the organization and why
it exists. It attracts people not just employees but also customers and vendors who believe
in the vision of the organization.
