A 21st century World - where 'values' are 'valued'


[January 29th 2022]



The statement 'What gets measured gets done' becomes highly pertinent when 'what's getting measured' relates to 'values' (e.g. Good Points®) ... values that are intrinsically motivating and 'Good' for our psychological well-being as well as the world around us too ... 

 

... and this is why the Good Turns Foundation has been set up in the UK, with additional plans to spread as far afield as New Zealand, Australia and the USA. 

 

The Good Turns Foundation has a mission of 'creating a world where good is valued and people and communities thrive' ... and to do this we are introducing a new measure of value to bring this mission to life (Good Points®)  ...  we fully understand how measures can drive behaviours ... and how psychological well-being is the path to a much better and brighter future too ...


The brilliant Dr W. Edwards Deming, an inspiration to me and a man before his time, wrote his landmark 'The New Economics: For Industry, Economics, Education' over 20 years ago (after writing 'Out of the Crisis') ...


Well the CRISIS is now upon us and the time to act is NOW ...

 

The highly respected ex Governor of the Bank of England, Dr. Mark Carney, recently took to the floor to highlight the fundamental deficiencies in existing economic systems, providing brilliant economic and philosophical insights, and pointing to the future - a world where 'values' become valued (i.e. 'Good').


'How we get what we value' is a truly powerful oratory ... and one that should go down in history ... as the start of a movement where 'values' are 'valued'




Footnote:


Good Points® in this article can be replaced with Environment Points®, Volunteer Points®, Community Points®, Charity Points®, Climate Points®, Health Points®, Creative Points® ... and many more unique and meaningful measures which form part of the Good Turns® portfolio of measures too.
