Culture Never Sleeps

Culture never sleeps, takes a holiday, goes on vacation, or calls in sick. Culture operates around the clock, irrespective of whether you acknowledge or appreciate it. Yes, every organization has a culture that sends constant signals to its people on how to think and act in the workplace. The crucial question is: “does your organization’s culture facilitate or hinder the achievement of desired results?” Of course, if your organization’s culture is hindering or impeding the delivery of needed results, then you have no other choice than to eliminate the hindrances and impediments by changing the current culture.

It is the culture of your organization that is producing your current results. It is that simple, yet significant: culture produces results. If your organization is achieving the desired results, then your organization holds a strong culture that produces what it wants and needs. If, on the other hand, your organization is not achieving the desired results, then your organization’s culture needs to change. This is what we’ve learned over the past two decades working with thousands of companies around the world: organizational culture is the primary determiner of results, and organizational leaders are ultimately accountable for shaping the culture.

Our ongoing research related to culture shows that over half of leaders and managers surveyed consider their organizational culture to be a major impediment to the achievement of desired results.
