Figuring out what type of culture works best for your company or organization is critical to its success. What works for one may not work for another. Your overall cultural umbrella is the foundation. You may have a diverse smorgasbord of "mini" cultures under that umbrella, especially in large organizations or global companies.
Change often impacts your culture. COVID-19 forced changes in the way many organizations functioned, from human resource issues to an increased need for many to work remotely, to no longer needing space, to importing and exporting challenges, distribution, health, etc. As leaders, we sometimes forget that we need to change and adjust too if our company is to survive. Within the following pages, you will find the seven indicators that tell a story about your company's culture. They are interwoven, like cords, to create the cable that holds your organization in place. Broken cords put a strain on the others and prolonged strain can cause another cord to snap. It doesn't take a genius to see where this can lead. The tools presented here will assist you first, in determining what your culture looks like, and then where changes need to be made, and finally what needs to change, if anything, to strengthen it. It is time to take a hard look at these indicators.
