If the organisation has all the skills and resources it needs, then its culture acts as a driver for the organisation. However, if the culture is not aligned and coherent with the strategy, then it can become a weight or even an obstacle for the company. The organisational culture is the very engine from which an organisation draws its vital energy to be able to realise the idea and mission for which it was initially created.
Books or consultants can not explain which culture will ultimately lead an organisation to its goals. Only leaders and people inside the organisation can identify and understand which culture best fits their organisation’s needs.
Leaders have the responsibility to nurture, develop and use the culture for the organisation’s advantage. Over the years, we have supported hundreds of leaders in gaining awareness, and we have seen them transform their organisations into ones full of prosperity, wellness and competence, where social values are created. The organisational culture is the set of individual and collective values shared among the members of an organisation, capable of influencing their behaviours and support structures.
