Leaders have to treat culture building as an engineering discipline, not a magical one.
Mark Brand of Turning Point Partners shares his strategies in culture building.
“We’ve found that answering three questions can help transform culture from a mystery to a science: 1) How does culture drive performance? 2) What is culture worth? 3) What processes in an organization affect culture?
If we substitute the word culture with behaviours we get a lot closer to the answers.
How does organisation and individual behaviours drive performance?
What is organisational behaviours (SMART Tribes) worth?
What processes & systems (as people and groups are largely systems) affect collective organisational behaviours?”
‘A great culture is not easy to build — it’s why high performing cultures are such a powerful competitive advantage. Building a culture within an organisation cannot be left to chance and and must be carefully cultivated and nurtured. Leaders have to treat culture building as an engineering discipline, not a magical one.’ Source: Harvard Business Review
