Why Culture Matters
Edgar Schein’s Model - Three Levels of Culture
Visible organizational
structures and business
processes
Strategies, goals, vision
Unconscious beliefs,
perceptions, thoughts and
feelings – the unwritten
rules.
Dress code
Work hours
Rites and rituals…
Are values
communicated to
employees,
customers,
suppliers… aligned?
How are decisions
made, conflicts
resolved…watch out
for the signals
12
On Leadership…
13
Remember…..
national culture influences organisation
culture!
14
The same rule can be interpreted differently depending on the national
culture!
and how rules are interpreted…..
Three Levers to Change
Decision making: structure and governance vs how decisions are really made
Power of meetings how does this group really behave
Dealing with conflict How is really conflict handled ? Is there an elephant in the
room?
observe …and clarify with the leadership team
16
You need to acknowledge and
address the past.
Don’t get stuck
in the past
Warning!
17
New campaign!
Surveys
V
Interviews
Culture Assessments: which?
Signals/symbols that mean “we really are going to change”
It can be small…. with
significant impact
