Organisational culture
An organisation’s culture, which influences behaviours and attitudes, is a component of productivity, and when aligned with leadership and strategy, can make a business thrive.
What we can do for you
We believe that the effectiveness of executing all levels of strategy not only depends on the organisational structure, but also the organisational culture, which is another fundamental component of the operating mode of the organisation and part of its soft architecture.
We help you to undertake an assessment of the current state of the organisational culture to capture opportunities and pain points, and determine how it aligns with long-term strategic objectives. The organisational culture is the way that things are done in the organisation, encompassing the unwritten rules that influence individual and group behaviour and attitudes.
In the process of identifying potential opportunities for improvement, we do not lose sight of the organisation’s values, which by nature are designed to promote consistency, shared expectations, and self-control, and as behavioural principles are the foundation of the organisational culture.
We help you to determine if the proclaimed values are conducive to executing the overarching strategy in the pursuit of making the vision of the organisation come true. Should we discover that the values do not align, we help you in proposing fitting adjustments.
Should there be a gap between proclaimed values and lived values, we provide a case for change. This may include different tactics to reinforce the values such as the design of artifacts as visible manifestations of the culture to help everyone in the organisation to understand it, believe in it, and live it.
