Holistic's Friends & Family Update: All About Values | June 2025
Friends and Family,
First things first — tell us your company’s values. (you’ll see why in a minute)
Most companies say they have values.
Few actually live them.
At Holistic, we’re changing that.
We’re excited to introduce the Holistic Values Project—a new initiative designed to help organizations move beyond posters and platitudes. This project focuses on measuring how well your team lives its values and building systems to reinforce them every day.
If you want your values to shape culture, guide behavior, and show up in real decisions—this is for you.
Let’s make your values real.

Resources for You
Holistic’s Cultural Calendar
Looking to build a more inclusive workplace one day at a time? Our Cultural Calendar is designed to help teams recognize and honor cultural celebrations and identity-based observances—especially those often overlooked.
Each calendar entry includes historical context, learning resources, and simple, actionable steps your team can take to foster inclusion. You can even subscribe directly to the calendar so key dates show up alongside your work meetings—making thoughtful scheduling and inclusive planning easier than ever.
As we reflect on milestones, client wins, and community highlights, one theme keeps showing up: values in action. If you’re ready to turn your organization's values into something your team can live every day, our Values-Based Training is a great place to start.
