I think you can teach that (at least at this org) the job is about professionalism, in a team, and what the actual nature of the goals is.
You really teach it by example. Articulating it can help, as a suggested interpretation of what you're demonstrating, but people will notice if you say one thing and do another.
Also, if they're still confused, tell them that much of what they've read on the Internet is for different kinds of organizations or individuals. (I'm recalling, for example, one of those influencer videos about day in the life at a FAANG, where almost the entire day is spent getting free food, walking around campus and bumping into other barely-20 friends and chatting and laughing like you're still carefree in school and don't know anything yet, plus a coding/debugging session and a product meeting, both of which seemed like fashion poses. Hahaha. Learn the professionalism, and have a life, but think more about conscientiousness than fabulousness.)
