Your Guide To Transforming Culture In Larger Organizations
Imagine a workplace culture where excitement fills the air, where everything is done to enhance the customer experience, where innovation thrives and teams easily adapt to unforeseen circumstances, where your senior team works toward a shared vision of success, and where people genuinely care for one another, feel recognized, and receive support within the organization.
Cultures like these are not created overnight. They aren’t formed by policy, procedure, and measuring Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). High-performing cultures have values alignment, mission alignment, and low levels of fear. These are cultures where employees can bring their beliefs and values to work and where there’s a shared belief, throughout the organization, that they have a high-performing culture.
SweetRush’s intention for Transforming Culture In Larger Organizations is to introduce the concept of transforming culture in larger organizations, those with more than 1,000 employees.
While culture change involves engineering a process and managing the moving parts, transformation takes place on the inside. Transformation involves human beings and all the feelings, beliefs, and values that motivate them. It’s about working with people’s motivations to create something bigger and better than you could have imagined alone. It takes time and needs to be cultivated, like a plant or any living thing. While change is a process from “this” to “that,” transformation unleashes the best of what can be. Transformation frees human potential and accesses our collective wisdom.
Throughout the eBook you’ll come across with the culture journey. Leaders on a transformational path need to respond to market conditions as well as to the needs of their internal teams. You will create visions and then reshape them. Culture is not a place you arrive, but a way of being that you will develop and evolve over time.
