Value Creation - This is a word you will see getting thrown here and there in companies in relation to a team member, a team, and at a company level. However, its meaning is different at an individual, or at a team and at a BU level. Sometimes the meaning gets diluted when we start asking questions like what value a person has delivered in terms of cost savings, revenue growth etc. We live in such an interconnected world that it is impossible to deliver dollar value at an individual value. It takes multiple teams working together, doing their piece of work at the right speed with the right accuracy levels to realise the end business value. It is like a beautiful picture that looks complete if all the pieces of the puzzle come together in the right way. Even if one of the pieces isn't where it is supposed to be, the whole picture looks disoriented. Create the right team for each initiative like a POD, attach a value to the initiative, hold individuals accountable for their piece of work and judge them only on that and the lead responsible for getting all pieces together and working with other team leads to deliver value. Get over with a personal value syndrome or at least change the meaning of value at an individual level.
