Culture / Ecosystem

This is how the organization (the people) is conditioned to behave. The habits, personality, preferences and aversions, and how all the components are used to working with each other. People’s habits, behaviors and attitudes are deeply rooted, and if they happen to misalign with organizational initiatives, vision, strategy or even processes, everything will stall. As the saying goes: “Culture eats Strategy for breakfast”.

• Do we stop at each intersection and decide how to proceed?
• Are we informal and talk all the time?
• Do we need to have clear instructions from the top on how to proceed, or is there an expectation of autonomy in different parts of the organization?
• How is information disseminated in the organization?
• Are we able to manage the culture mix?
• Most importantly – are we sufficiently aware of our culture and is it conducive to reaching our goals?
