“To create the desired work environment and a productive corporate culture, top management, leaders, managers and staff must work in concert to achieve a win-win partnership.”

- Victor S.L. Tan in Changing Your Corporate Culture

Am I overly resistant to change?

The most successful people are change agents on the cutting edge of new technologies, projects, and processes. Are you among the most successful?

1. Do you read voraciously to discover new developments and future trends in your field?

Am I overly resistant to change?

2. Do you attend every conference and seminar you can in order to learn new skills?

3. Do you associate with the people in your company who embrace change, rather than with those who fight it?

Am I overly resistant to change?

4. Do you talk to people outside your department in order to stay plugged into what’s going on?

5. When you resist change, do you look beyond the threat you feel to the opportunity that’s almost certain to result?

Am I overly resistant to change?

6. When change is inevitable do you force yourself to exert your best effort to make it work even before you start to feel good about it?

Am I overly resistant to change?

7. Do you look for good examples and new ideas about how people in other companies or in other parts of your company, perform tasks like yours?

Am I overly resistant to change?

8. Do you work at maintaing a healthy body, physical energy, and good social habits?

9. Do you make efforts at acquiring good mindsets?

Am I overly resistant to change?

10. Are you a “can do it” person rather than “it will never work person”?

In today’s business world, you cannot afford to answer any of these questions negatively. You try to get on the actions you need to take to become a change agent.

What is culture?

In a society culture means ideas, beliefs and customs that are shared and accepted by people. Culture refers to the socially approved patterns of behaviour in that context. So we can speak of Western culture, European culture, American culture, Chinese culture, African culture or Nigerian culture.

Culture among groups

Among a group of people, culture means shared attitudes and beliefs about issues. Young people have youth culture. The university community has academic culture or what is often referred to as academic freedom or scholarship.

Culture in the public service

There is the military culture of discipline and obedience within the armed forces. Public service has what is known as bureaucracy or bureaucratic culture.

Culture as group habitsThere are also group of common habits that are often referred to as culture. So you have

- maintenance culture, - reading culture or lack of it, - learning culture- Queuing culture- ICT culture

What is habit to an individual is culture to a group of people.

What is corporate culture?

Corporate culture refers to ways of life and patterns of relationships in a business or business organizations. It is a set or norms comprising of beliefs, attitudes, core values and shared beliefs of people in that organization.
