Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 4, Episode 33, and our "Incorporating Value" mini-series on Transacting Value Podcast!
Today we're discussing the inherent but underrated August core values of Perseverance, Reliability, and Vitality as strategies for character discipline and relative success, with the co-owners of Big Picture Photography, Andrew Jordan and Emma Ball. If you are new to the podcast, welcome to our mini-series "Incorporating Value"! If you're a continuing listener, welcome back!
Imagine a world where every professional, from a CPA to a photographer, brings their authenticity to work and infuses their personal values into the business. They've built a business culture that reflects their values and complementary skills.
While the mention of accounting might make you think of number crunching and hard deadlines, Andrew and Emma are here to change this perception. From providing feedback from a place of accountability rather than shame, to handling difficult conversations with transparency and kindness, they're redefining the environment for CPAs. They also share their strategy of using core values to drive recruitment decisions, focusing on humility, excellence, ownership, and growth.
They are also creating a positive work environment by emphasizing values over number crunching. As they wrap up, Andrew and Emma offer career advice to emphasize the need to be human in professional settings.
Thanks for hanging out with us and enjoying the conversation because values still hold value. Special thanks to Hoof and Clucker Farm and Keystone Farmer's Market for your support. To Andrew's and Emma's families, friends, inspirations and experiences for your inspiration to this conversation, and to Andrew Jordan and Emma Ball for your insight!
