In a world of competing priorities and ethical dilemmas, how can we truly live by our values? Making Values Real is a transformative guide that bridges the gap between aspiration and action, offering practical insights into integrating values into our personal lives, relationships, workplaces, and society.

Like yeast in baking, values have the power to shape, sustain, and elevate our experiences-if we actively work them into our daily decisions and interactions. Drawing from years of experience in values-based teaching and leadership, this book provides the tools to navigate values conflicts, foster moral agency, and create a culture of integrity. Whether you're a leader, professional, educator, or simply someone seeking to align your life with your values, this book empowers you to make values a living force in every aspect of your world.

Are you ready to be the baker who brings real, lasting change?

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
