Summary and action points

In this session we have described how values come into play in the workplace from a range of sources. We heard about how Climate Outreach use values to engage different segments of the public on the issue of climate change. They have identified particular messages that speak to the values held by faith groups or the centre-right.

We also introduced the Theory of Basic Human Values, based on work in social psychology.

You should now be able to:

• Reflect on the values that you encounter in your own workplace.
• Consider how organisational, professional and personal values can be variously aligned or in conflict
• Predict how attitudes towards environmental issues are likely to be influenced by different basic human values.
