In busy times there is also a temptation to let investments such as training take a back seat to getting the work out the door. Only adherence to the firm's principles and values prevents opportunistic behavior that may have short-term benefits but long-term adverse consequences.
In periods of high demand, it is easy for companies to prioritize immediate productivity over long-term investments like training. This focus on short-term output can lead to neglecting crucial employee development, which is essential for sustained growth and success.
Maintaining a commitment to a firm's core principles and values is vital to resist the urge for opportunistic actions that promise quick gains but may ultimately harm the organization. Upholding these values ensures that decisions made today do not compromise the future stability and integrity of the business.
