Sad that so many people spend working lives in institutions whose values are unintelligible or not theirs. I worked at a company whose values were clearly articulated and formed a shared vocabulary amongst employees. It can be done. The values were stated at a high level of generality, as they have to be. So applying them in novel cases required interpretation, discussion. In that sense, the principles were not easy to apply. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. The discussions themselves encourage engagement, reflection.
