What's interesting about stated/explicit corporate values is they are almost always based on what you'd call "slave morality", like being good, traditionally moral participants. That's because those values are for underlings and PR for the general public, though set by the top. But of course, they are actually run under the master morality of doing what is expedient to achieve the goal (usually money). > Most of the time, they're not doing it because they knowingly follow Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy, but rather that they parrot the philosophy from other corporate examples... as predicted by Nietzsche. It could also be that in the modern world, most powerful institutions don't associate themselves with religion directly (like pre-modern power structures, kingdoms and empires, etc) so they have no default values to fall back on. Large corporations transcend nations and cultures, so cannot even fall back on those specific cultural values. Thus they must make their own, not necessarily to mimick others, but because having a large organization with no publicly stated values is simply confusing to us hairless apes.
