Its usually a failing of the business to not communicate it better but values are one of the inputs to create the culture you want at a company. The best version of this Ive heard is that “culture is the right people living their values”. Done well, it makes it easy for people to hold themselves and each other accountable. It makes hiring easier, sets tone for communications, branding, etc. Its super important for it to be explicitly stated. The difference amongst companies not explicitly stating their values and ones who “wander” is documented.
