Listen in on a conversation about our human needs that need to be fulfilled in a working context. How can we reflect on what work makes us happy? How can sharing your personal story help in being more happy with work? And what can you do to better understand who you are and what you need to be fulfilled?

Core Values | Rody Turpijn (Head of Organization Wundermart)

Our core values define our deepest beliefs. Our beliefs govern our decisions, our decisions generate our actions and our actions become our behaviours. The core values of a startup define the primary beliefs of the company based on which the team acts. Core values echo the company’s soul. So why would you define your core values as a company and why should you embrace them as an employee? In a conversation with Rody Turpijn (Heart of Organization at Wundermart) we highlight why core values are important for a company and what they can mean in building the team and running the team. Wundermart is a fast growing Dutch retail and SaaS startup (wundermart.io).
