Then it makes no difference which you use, since the meaning is inscrutable.

Evonik uses the first phrase in a special report, as do other companies trying to enhance and promote their sustainability values. "The goals of the HR strategy are to: design a corporate culture geared to building value and sharing values". (Source: http://www.econsense.de/sites/all/files/Evonik_CR_Report_2008_0.pdf)
Many other companies rather use "geared to build value", but most examples relate to a shareholder value background.
