Every organisation has a culture whether planned

Why not create a great one.
Why not create an organisation that
we love!

have the courage to start with the customer. My biggest regret is the moments I let a lack of data override my
intuition on what is best for the customer

For every decision we face we ask ourselves
“Selves! what is in this for the customer?”

The Facebook post that nearly shut down a business.
This Facebook post received over 150,000 likes and 11,000 comments, expressing similar
experiences at other shop locations. It also started a wave of thousands of other similar posts on David’s Bridal’s Facebook page complaining about terrible customer service. As the company failed to respond to the complaints, it triggered a discourse encouraging other brides-to-be to shop for dresses elsewhere and encouraged a boycott of this previously popular place to shop for wedding dresses.

One last thought on our customers
“Money cannot buy the feelings you can create with a good experience”
If we make the experience really big, we can charge whatever we want for it.

Brand Defines Us
![Page 31: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Why Branding?
• Definition of Branding -“the process involved in creating a unique name and image for a product in the consumers' mind, mainly through advertising campaigns with a consistent theme. Branding aims to establish a significant and differentiated presence in the market that attracts and retains loyal customers’
![Page 32: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Without Branding
• There is no differentiation
• There is no long term profitability
![Page 33: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
People do not have relationships with products!
They have relationships with brands!
![Page 34: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

When Kraft bought Cadbury for $19.5b
What did they buy?
Chocolate, factories, recipes…………..

We are lucky!!
Building a brand today does not require $$$ spent on TV advertisements and blockbuster product placements.
Brands are built on a cultural movement.
![Page 38: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• What is our cultural movement?
• What is our Brand?
Make Golf Fun!!!

Branding V Advertising
![Page 40: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
A final thought on Brand
Ask yourself am I representing
the brand well.
–What I wear?
–How I talk to customers?
![Page 41: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Just because a mistake has been made in the past. We do not need a policy for it.
WE WILL NOT PENALIZE THE MAJORITY FOR THE MISTAKES OF A FEW
![Page 44: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

There are a few ways to fail that we WILL NOT tolerate!
1. Repeating the same mistake.
2. Not listening to the customer
![Page 50: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
We do not have pages of policies
![Page 51: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
We have one simple policy that covers most things.
“Use your best judgement..” Keep in mind our guiding principal.
![Page 52: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

What is good judgement?
1. Team Over Self
2. Company over Team
3. Customers over Company

Debates will be won by those that keep our guiding principal top of mind, not by job titles.
We try not to pull rank.

More on Job titles!
If we had our way we would not use job titles.
For clarity to external stakeholders we still have them, however internally we like to think everybody has the same title.

We find having our staff see themselves as Brand ambassadors their day to day activities have more importance on our overall brand.
![Page 58: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
We constantly
question the status quo

when you find yourself on the side of the majority, its time to pause and reflect
- Mark Twain
![Page 60: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
At LSC we thought that Blue- White – Red and Yellow tees brought a sexist and elitist stigma to golf so we threw out the tradition……… and we have Slate, Crimson, Tuscan & Mocha
![Page 61: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
At LSC we saw the market moving in a different direction and were the first to introduce “non traditional” membership model.
Believe me! This was not a popular decision at the time.
![Page 62: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
At the time Golf Australia (golf’s governing body) whose vision is “to grow the game” were vehemently against such a membership structure.
A few years on Golf Australia have implemented its own membership product which is very similar to ours.
![Page 63: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
In both of these (and many other) cases we;
1. Listened to the customer!
2. Realised tradition was getting in the way!
3. Started a new concept
4. Implemented and kept our guiding principle top of mind
![Page 64: What is culture?](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052315/555b8fe0d8b42acd238b5075/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)

Decisions are at times un popular, they do not get made by popular vote.
Data is analysed
Opinions are heard
In the end someone has to decide
