Hey, as much as I would love and appreciate participation - I need to keep the information centralised tor auditing and data protection.
The form does not harvest addresses or require google log in. I am a degoogler myself but this is the format that works best with the college infrastructure. Everything is just a mouse click and then manually entering an email address that wont be verified.
I would appreciate it if you could complete it.
I have so many thoughts stirred up by this survey. Here's just 1: some companies don't benefit from consultants because they are the unwilling or unable to implement their recommendations - not because the recommendatios are wrong. Honestly, most big companies hire consultants to blame their poor results on - and for that, consultants are totally worth the cost. Happy to share more if you would like - just message me.
I think the first part is very much related to culture eating strategy for breakfast, in that you can't turn a ship with good intentions. I had not considered the second part and it is an incredibly relevant point. I will definitely take any firther insights you have.
I replied here in the hopes that the thread being busy would encourage more people to take part.
Sure thing! Here are some other thoughts your survey brought to mind:
-
I think of business culture as the way people behave when a leader isn't there giving direction. So, sota in line with your perspective. But unlike the culture of a country, I think a business' culture is defined by behaviors (as opposed to beliefs).
-
In the last 40 years, public corporations have focused on profits and shareholder value. But I think it is a huge mistake to ignore the other groups the business impacts and influences, such as their customers, their employees and the community they are in. My perspective is that unless all of those things are looked after, the business will become terrible over time (Boeing is like a case study on this).
-
Not mentioned in your survey, but a pet peeve is the lack of development and mentorship of staff. Most teams could be so much stronger with the right support, oversight and development. But it requires a lot of elbow grease, which managers and leaders are unwilling to put in. To me, this is so wrong it boarders on unethical. But, at least in the US, it is pervasive across businesses.
