Such companies are capable of responding with nimbleness to the environmental drivers that necessitate change in strategy and practices. Getting a profile of the current culture can enable organizations to thoughtfully bring the elements of the culture into alignment and move forward towards an ideal. Organizations develop cultures whether they try to or not. If your intention is to appraise individual-organization fit, aligning culture with its strategic goals, understand subcultures, assess mergers and acquisitions partners, or to make organizational changes in practices or values, understanding your culture in an objective manner can give you a business advantage and spare you enormous time and money. Not understanding your culture in today's business world can be fatal.
Executives are frequently analytical and quantitative in their orientation.
Having data and an assessment tool to deliver a painful message may be the key to getting management to pay attention and face the reality of what kind of culture really exists. It is also useful in preventing the demise of the messenger. All rights reserved. Hagberg Consulting Group. 950 Tower Lane, 7th Floor.
