Your values are the bedrock of your creative business and practice. 

They are based on your personal beliefs about what’s important and your expectations and preferences in the way you live your life and interact with others. 

From a business perspective, your values represent your philosophy and approach to your profession and your craft and give your clients an insight into what you stand for and what’s important to you. 

As a solo creative in your own business, your values will help to guide you to the kind of work and clients that support your principles and align with your ideology. As a larger business, your values can help steer your plans and your people in the right direction.

This FREE webinar will take you through a reflective and practical three-step process that can help you to identify your core values, see how they can guide and inform your business goals, and work toward turning your values into actions.

+ STEP ONE - Find and map your personal principles, beliefs, and values.

+ STEP THREE - Implementing your creative business values.

What’s Included?
A 60 minute webinar with our creative industries experts (which you can access later if you want), a worksheet to guide you through the three steps, plus lifetime access to additional resources.

Who’s it for?
Creative and arts practitioners, freelancers, start-ups, and arts entrepreneurs from beginners to established (international sign-ups welcome!). The Value of Values is suitable for businesses large and small.

What’s Creative Plus Business?
We’re a social enterprise dedicated to educating creative people and arts organisations about business skills. We help through sharing practical knowledge in a fun and irreverent way, and everything we do is designed to help creatives to feel more confident and comfortable about the entrepreneurial aspects of their creative practice. We believe that a bit of naughtiness, tempered with a kind heart and a big dose of professionalism, is the key to helping creative people understand the boring basics of business.
