Overview:
A culture that performs well allows an organization to accelerate its growth, increase its alignment, and hit its important strategic goals. A high performance culture supports a company to achieve its vision, strategies and business objectives. While there are basic principles and tenets behind a high performance culture, each successful company culture is unique - just as each family is unique. We can't replicate another company's culture.
Ironically, culture only matters tremendously when it's not working well. When organizational culture works well, we don't necessarily pay that much attention to it. If the culture is strained, holding the company back or creating a toxic environment, we begin to pay more attention to it. Even in a high performance culture, we should still pay attention because most likely as your company grows, your culture may need to shift. Think of it this way: Culture is the sum total of what leaders and employees have learned when they interact with each other, communicate and solve problems.
Assessment is a key component of creating a high performance culture. When companies want to transition their culture, a cultural analysis sheds light on the key people dynamics that make operational functioning less effective, aligned and productive. Rather than taking a band aid approach to cultural transition, it's important to look beneath the surface and the symptoms to understand what works and doesn't work in their culture and WHY. We work to develop insight into how cultural drivers and constraints shape the larger organizational system.
High performance cultures are created in relation to a specific goal, problem or challenge. We don't develop cultures without connected it to specific business objectives. Consider top three corporate priorities and identify your current culture helps or hinders them.
Ideally, a high performance culture incorporates these elements:
- An organizational culture in which great results are achieved through people, communication, ownership and challenge
- Leaders and employees see their roles in relationship to the "big picture" and understand how and why they contribute. Context greatly impacts results
- Organization has a clear picture of where it's going and how it will get there (within a specific time frame)
- Flexibility and awareness to morph, change or expand as required
