Organizational Culture and Leadership

Page 11: Classic Reading Presentation · Classic Reading Presentation Darcey Hott 10/31/2015. ... – I have to present a classical reading(?) • Here’s what I didn’t know – Everything

The Learning Leader as Culture Manager

• Leadership can occur anywhere in the organization 

• It’s the attitude and motivation to examine and manageculture

Leadership in…• Culture Creation

• Organizational Midlife

Page 13: Classic Reading Presentation · Classic Reading Presentation Darcey Hott 10/31/2015. ... – I have to present a classical reading(?) • Here’s what I didn’t know – Everything

Culture Creation• Key is to be self‐aware

• Own assumptions impact organization

• Difference between what they intend to impart and how their own inner conflicts manifest

Page 14: Classic Reading Presentation · Classic Reading Presentation Darcey Hott 10/31/2015. ... – I have to present a classical reading(?) • Here’s what I didn’t know – Everything

Organizational Midlife• Detect how the culture influences strategy, structure and 

how groups relate to one another

• Diagnose cultural influences AND their impact on the organization’s ability to change and learn

• Ultimate paradox, accepting that they might not have the vision needed and must replace themselves

Page 15: Classic Reading Presentation · Classic Reading Presentation Darcey Hott 10/31/2015. ... – I have to present a classical reading(?) • Here’s what I didn’t know – Everything

Mature and Potentially Declining Organizations

• Entrenched in culture

• Become blind to and paralyzed by it

• Requires extreme self insight, exposure to many subcultures and license to challenge assumptions

Leadership and Culture in Strategy Formulation

• Notice changes in the environment and then figure out what needs to be done to remain adaptive

• Perpetual seeking to understand external and internal influences and make positive adjustments

Can you help??• Motivation – To change the culture of their organization, 

leaders must be willing to unfreeze it, change it, then refreeze it.

When an organization’s culture is not all right…

• “If the boundaries of an organization become looser, a further motivational issue arises in that it is less and less clear where a leader’s ultimate loyalty should lie – with the organization, with industry, with country, or with some broader professional community whose ultimate responsibility is to the globe and to all of humanity.”

Summary

• Leaders need – Self‐reflection and insight– An understanding of how their words, actions and behavior impact their org.

– Ability to detect and identify cultural elements– Skill to apply appropriate interventions at various stages

– Willingness to step into the unknown and continue to learn
