Frequently asked questions

Can I write about my company's values critically?

Focus on the systemic challenge of living values, not on attacking your employer. 'Why values are hard to maintain at scale' is thought leadership. 'My company is hypocritical' is venting.

How do I make values content interesting?

Attach it to a specific story with stakes. 'We value transparency' is boring. 'We had to tell a client the truth about a mistake that would cost us the account' is gripping.

What if my company doesn't have formal values?

Write about the unwritten values — every company has them. 'The values nobody put on a slide but everyone knows' is often more honest and interesting content.
