Whether you are evolving your strategy, transforming your business model, undergoing a merger or acquisition, or internally realigning to remain relevant; all companies in the face of change, require an “adaptive culture” to remain competitive and sustainable into the future.
Responding to changes in the working landscape is no longer an event, instead change is constant. The ability of an organisation to “continuously adapt” to these changes must become part of the “way they operate”.
Culture determines the operating landscape – the unwritten rules – which either inhibit or enable the degree to which people willingly contribute, collaborate and commit themselves to the generative purpose of an organisation.
Culture shaping is about changing how we do things in order to achieve a better result. Whether it’s large-scale or small-scale, it involves shifting people and the organisation to deliver higher levels of value.
“Adaptive” culture is purpose-driven, flexible and resilient”
SHAPING A STRONG “ADAPTIVE” CULTURE
• Sets expectations around work practices

“Leadership shapes culture, culture shapes behaviour, and behaviour drives performance”

STRATEGY EFFECTIVENESS DEPENDS ON CULTURAL ALIGNMENT
