From Foundation to Formation: Why Values Need a Pathway
At GPS, Inc. & CLUB18, our six core values — Growth, People, Significance, Innovation, Nurture, and Collaboration — are more than just words on a wall. They’re the heartbeat of who we are. They remind us why we show up, how we lead, and what kind of legacy we want to leave behind.
But here’s the truth:
Values alone aren’t enough.
Values Without Movement Are Just Ideals
You can believe in growth but stay stuck.
You can care about people but fail to connect.
You can talk about collaboration but keep going it alone.
We’ve all felt the tension between what we believe and how we actually live. That’s where many people fall short — not because they don’t care, but because they don’t have a pathway.
And that’s exactly why CLUB18 exists.
CLUB18: The Pathway That Puts Values into Motion
If our values are the foundation, CLUB18 is the formation.
It’s a structured, intentional growth experience designed to take you — and those you lead — on a journey of clarity, purpose, and transformation.
Each month focuses on a core area of life and leadership development. Not fluff. Not overload. Just 18 minutes a week of focused content built to move you forward — one step at a time.
Why 18 minutes? Because we believe that’s long enough to be meaningful, short enough to be doable, and consistent enough to create real change.
From Belief to Behavior — Together
The truth is, values don’t come alive in isolation.
They live and breathe in the way we interact, lead, serve, and grow. CLUB18 helps connect the dots between what we value and how we live.
It’s a movement from:
Belief to behavior
Awareness to action
Intention to impact
Whether you’re a leader, parent, friend, or teammate — CLUB18 gives you a practical way to live out the values we just walked through together.
