Company Culture – Making the Invisible Seen

In this episode, Bob’nJoyce rift on the importance of an organization’s culture being seen and understood. Our definition of culture is the way that a group solves problems, make decisions, and gets the work done. When these norms or assumptions no longer work, making your culture tangible and seen, is the first step to cultural change. To do this, we share ideas on how you can lead a conversation to make the unseen seen by having groups discuss these dimensions on a continuum of how things happen around here:

Conflict – Direct and blunt or indirect and polite
Tolerance for ambiguity – order and completeness or raggedy and chaotic
Awareness of time – Fixed or fluid
Emotions – expressive or controlled
Perspective on the business – data/finance or intuition/art
Freedom – Hierarchical or egalitarian
Dress – Formal or informal
Communication – Explicit and direct or implicit and indirect

Great stuff here so…
