Abstract

NovaCare, a rehabilitation and employee-services comapny, has evolved over a 15-year period. Senior management believes that its success is largely due to its core values, which are shared on a daily basis and drive decisions. Operational and structural changes have also been made. As financial pressures increase, can these core values survive? What role do values play in the success of a company? A rewritten version of an earlier case.
