The Values Centre website was created by Barrett Values Centre to provide information on the application of the Seven Levels of Consciousness model and the Cultural Transformation Tools ® for the cultural transformation of corporations, non-profits, NGO’s, government institutions, schools, communities and nations, as well as providing details on the use of the model and tools for personal transformation and leadership development.

In an age of increasing global and local competition, cultural capital – the ability of an organisation to build a corporate culture that attracts and retains talented people – is rapidly emerging as the most important criterion for success. Who you are and what you stand for is just as important as the quality of products and services you provide. To become a market leader you will need to embark on a process of whole system change. Continuous monitoring of the corporate culture will be essential for success.

The cultures of corporations, government institutions, and non-governmental agencies are a direct reflection of the consciousness of the current leaders and the legacy of past leaders. The leaders’ values define the culture of an organisation, and the culture defines the organisation’s competitive advantage or level of mission assurance. Cultural transformation begins with the personal transformation of the leaders, and building group cohesion in the leadership team.

Mission assurance – the uninterrupted delivery of high quality services – is the critical performance indicator for public service organisations. Delivering such services requires a culture that is outwardly-focused and cares about people. Too often local, state and national institutions fail to deliver because they become inward-looking and bureaucratic. Whole system change and cultural transformation are essential for turning such organisations around.

The evolution of human consciousness is critically dependent on the evolution of the consciousness of nations. Nations are the cultural crucible in which individuals grow and develop. Individuals can only self-actualise – become viable independent human beings – if they live in relatively prosperous, democratic nations that are internally stable and provide freedom and equality for all. Creating such nations is the task before us at this point in time.
