Six Value Medals

Six value medals (The latest model of Debono)

Six value medals is the latest invention of Debono. It is intended to exmine values, prioritise which are the most important, and then ensure that best values are prioritized first and maximized every step of the process.

The following is the definitions of the medals by Debono.

GOLD MEDAL: Gold is precious, and so are people. The gold medal asks, what matters to people? Achievement, pride, a sense of belonging, hope, trust and growth.

SILVER MEDAL: Silver impacts the organisation. What matters to the organisation – what are its goals and how would a action help or hinder in the pursuit of those goals?

STEEL MEDAL: Steel must be as strong as possible. What are the implications for quality and how will the decision at hand impact the quality of what we do?

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

WOOD MEDAL: Wood spotlights ecological values in the broadest sense. Is ther a positive or negative impact on the environment if we take this route?

BRASS MEDAL: Brass looks like gold but is not. Brass medal values examine appearances and perception. How will this action be interpreted?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 prioritise values they become vital partners in growing the business

My opinion on six value medals method

Today, we have many things to do. The competition is very high. We have to work under time- pressure. We have time-limit. We can't do all things in detail. So, we need to know what we should focus on. We must know which things are the most important. To define value of things, this six value medals method will be helpful.
