Organizational Culture It is the way people think and act. Every organization has a culture, which either works for them of against them.
What Type of Organization Culture Do You Want? Leaders must create the culture.
If you need a change in results, you need a change in culture. If your current culture (C1) is not a bad culture and produces Results (R1), and, your goal is to produce new results (R2), then you need to create a new culture (C2). Culture Produces Results
R1 R2 New Culture Produces New Results C2 C1
What Type of Culture Should You Strive to Have? One where people embrace accountability.
Accountability Accountability vs. Non-Accountability _________________________________________________________ A personal commitment to achieving the organization’s results See it Own It Solve It Do It People who are, habitually accept that they are part of the solution Non-Accountability A focus on what cannot be done rather than what can be done Blame Game Victim Cycle People who are, habitually do not get results
Actions (A1) • Actions (A2) TO Shift to an Accountable Culture • People internalize the changes they need to make. • People take the initiative to figure out what to do. • People stop making excuses and start asking what else can I do. • People personally invest in making things happen. • People focus on finding solutions. • People externalize the need for change. • People wait to be told what to do. • People provide excuses for not moving forward. • People do not get engaged or show full ownership. • People focus on identifying problems.

Cultural Change Culture change happens one person at a time, and the process begins with getting each and every person in the organization aligned with results (R2). Nothing creates accountability and alignment more than a clear statement of the results (R2) you want to achieve.
Results Clearly define the desired results (R2). Introduce the desired results (R2) throughout the organization. Create accountability to achieve the desired results (R2).

Accelerating a shift in the way people act requires a clear understanding of what they need to STOP doing, what they need to START doing, and what they need to CONTINUE doing. The fastest way to get someone to change the way they act is to get them to change the way they think. Actions
You cannot bring about change in beliefs by simply asking someone to do something. To foster adoption of new beliefs (B2), you must create experiences that will convince people to think differently.
Changing beliefs requires overcoming selective interpretation and belief bias. This means well-planned experiences will often require interpretation. Experiences create beliefs that drive actions.
