What went wrong? Where Nedbank failed Strategy No clear Group strategy resulting in misalignment between units Strategic drift Structure Complex structure reflective of lack of Group direction and piecemeal fixes Lack of accountability – slow decision making, excessive bureaucracy and complex processes to deal with lack of ownership Mission critical functions unattended (Risk, MIS) Delivery Poor delivery primarily due to lack of direction and excessive bureaucracy High performance culture Culture of shaming and blaming Superficial alignment between strategy, performance measures and remuneration
