We’re all bound by the experience of feeling something so strongly within ourselves, that it guides everything we do; leading us to our ups and through our downs. Those feelings are our values. Values don’t just belong in the charter of a company, painted on the walls of a workplace. They reside at the centre of your life, guiding your every action. In the latest episode of ‘Everlutionary’, Hawah Kasat sits down with a global authority on values, Dr. Mandeep Rai - a journalist, academician and author of the international best-seeling book., “‘The Values Compass’. Together, they explore the essential ways values shape us, why it’s so important to identify and name our own personal values, and how this recognition can evoke mutual understanding, collective empathy, and global healing.
