Six Value Medals

Six Value Medals Brochure

A Revolutionary New Framework, Book, and Course for Leaders, Teams and Individuals From Dr. Edward de Bono The key to making decisions that will deliver maximum value lies in creating a framework that is specific enough to add meaning but is also pliable enough to expand and contract with each unique challenge. You'll find a framework robust enough to support these efforts in Edward de Bono's new course, Six Value Medals.

The skills taught in Six Value Medals help people quickly but thoroughly scan for values, prioritize which values are the most important to pursue, and then ensure that top values are addressed and maximized every step of the way. It's like putting on a pair of glasses with six lenses, one for each of the six important value categories.

The Six Value Medals

Gold:  Gold is a precious metal, and so are people.  The gold medal asks what matters to the people?  Human values include pride, achievement, a sense of belonging, hope, trust, and growth.

Silver:  Silver medal impacts the organization.  What matters to the organization?  What are our goals as a company and how will a prospective action help us or hinder us in pursuit of these goals?

Steel:  Steel must be as strong as possible.  The steel medal asks what are the implications for quality?  How will the decision at hand impact the quality of what we do?

Glass:  Glass can take the shape of many functional, often beautiful and colorful objects.  The glass medal covers change, innovation, simplicity and creativity.

Wood:  Wood spotlights ecology values in the broadest sense.  Is there a positive or negative impact to the environment if we take this road?

Brass:  Brass looks like gold but is not.  Brass medal values examine appearances and perception.  How will this action be interpreted?

"It is not enough to know that values are important. We need better ways of perceiving values, talking about them and assessing them. That is the best basis for action of any sort. The Six Value Medals framework gives you the tools to do this."

- Dr. Edward de Bono

Too often, organizations cannot articulate the basis for their decisions.  As a result, they may fail to notice and resolve conflicts in values that have a negative impact on employees, the organization, clients, community relationships, and more.

Until now there has not been a concrete way to assess the impact that a decision may have on our attempts to create and protect value.  When employees can scan, identify, and prioritize values, they become vital partners in growing your business.

"It was very satisfying to watch the participants learn about the Six Values and apply them both to their personal lives and our work here at GMAC Insurance.  The feedback from the attendees was very positive, and we are planning another class for March."

- Michael Campbell, Six Value Medals, Certified Trainer at GMAC
