Corporate Culture Risks Overview

The answer to the question why most initiatives focusing on the hard aspects of an organization fail lies in the intangible, or soft, aspects of the organization, its people.   If you leave them out of the equation you are stacking the odds against your success.   We are not simply referring to training or skills we are referring to “the way we do things around here”; with the emphasis on the way.   If you can’t change the people and the way they do things you are unlikely to achieve change at all, the culture will resist and try to snap back to where it was.

Do you recognize the risks below in your organization?   You will probably have some but if any are acute or you seem to recognize most then your culture is probably not aligned and presents a threat to the success of the business and all who work there.
