520 _a"There is a strong link between organisational culture and profit after all a happy workforce is a productive workforce. Yet a culture of inertia rather than innovation prevails in many organisations. Wise leaders, however, know how to work with the grain of human value and worth, harnessing it, so as to add shared value both for the organisation and for the good of society. So, how can astute leaders set the right conditions for creativity and cultivate non-economic goods, such as time and relationships, that make for a happy, effective workforce? The author proposes the notion of organisational culture as 'environments of value' wherein inner value translated into external value is embedded within the triple bottom line and indeed an awareness of how an organisation is like a force field: it exercises power and leaves a footprint. This construct informs the emerging concept of Shared Value as requiring five literacies about: Shareholder value and return for risk; Value for the social environment linked to respect for the natural environment; Inner value of those in the enterprise, which, when unlocked, releases energies and adds value; Nurture of non-quantifiable qualities that promote human flourishing; Understandings of how power relations distort the way organisations operate. He clearly signposts the link between promoting an environment of value within which these literacies flourish and the added value for the organisation arising from such a culture"--The publisher.
