How can companies ensure that their employees not only understand, but also actively embody, the company values in their daily work to drive exceptional performance?

Incentives
Companies can ensure that their employees understand and embody company values by clearly communicating these values through regular training, meetings, and company-wide communications. It is important for leadership to lead by example and demonstrate the values in their own actions. Providing incentives and recognition for employees who exemplify the company values can also encourage others to follow suit. Creating a positive and inclusive work culture where employees feel valued and empowered to contribute their ideas can help foster a sense of ownership and alignment with the company values. Regular feedback and performance evaluations should also include an assessment of how well employees are embodying the company values in their daily work.
