Why is Culture Important?

Culture reflects the behaviors and beliefs

within an organization.

There are behaviors that create value;

behaviors that create unacceptable risk.

Culture is the social glue

SummaryCulture is measurable, observable and actionable Having a

sphere of influence – voice - is essential

Don’t ask people what they think if you’re not going to take

visible action

Make the work granular and relate it to the specific behaviors

they engage in every day

In absence of a healthy culture, habitual excellence is not

possible
