Leadership and Values

The UK now has a new Prime Minister, straight into an uncertain and emotional political cauldron that will quickly test leadership, unity and decision making within parliament.

Leadership should help teams from a variety of backgrounds and beliefs focus on similarities rather than differences.  One trait our country's leaders should all share are our British values:

  • Democracy
  • Rule of law
  • Individual liberty
  • Mutual respect
  • Tolerance

Values are beliefs or convictions that guide and direct behaviour and support purpose and vision. Core values become the deeply ingrained principles and moral codes that provide the internal compass to guide behaviour, decisions and actions.

 Values are not laws – they are agreements. Political leadership in a democracy needs agreement to steer the nation to a better future.
