#79 Belonging and Culture, with Fiona Robertson
The underlying subconscious need to belong trumps Strategy or a Values statement written on a piece of paper. The Values statement is rarely lived by senior decision makers and people in the organization.
In organizations there may be a purpose statement, a mission statement, a vision statement, a set of values . . .
Middle managers are confused by what they are to pay attention to.
I encourage leaders to ask these questions:
1. What is our strategy and what are we trying to achieve?
2. Do we have the culture we need to execute this strategy?
The intersection between culture and strategy is absolutely critical.
3. What are the behaviors we need to see more of, to successfully execute this strategy?
Without knowing that, your strategy is a piece of paper.
Perhaps as well as having a values statement organisations could have a Culture statement, using the 10 dimensions listed in my book,, "Rules of Belonging"
