After years of journey, travelling from the orbit from one company to another, seeing why some companies succeeded and be able to sustain it that way while some enjoyed some quick bucks only to realized that the market dynamics has changed so much that it eaten the non-cultural companies alive!
There are lots of reason if we are to dissect it, from products, service, vision, competition, hiring the right people, training the right skills ....etc. Eventually, the emotional part of an organization plays the ultimate driver, that is CULTURE. This is the factor which drive people when there is no proper guidelines, no SOP & no footprints to follow.
When they feel it is the right things to do, they just do it.
Comparing a company with all the rules & regulations, telling people what to do, when to do, who should do it and how to do, culture says it all.
Instead of being told what to do, they do what is not being told.
Instead of react, they respond.
Instead of having "me", they have "others" first.
Instead of looking at financial P&L (Profit & Loss), they look at people P&L (People & Leadership).
When we look at a company with culture, you just feel the flow, the rhythm and the energy around everyone. Of course it all started from the top.
What makes a cultural boss then?
It is what they feel, the angle that they look at things, their emotional needs to be fulfilled and eventually, the deepest WHY that will drive the cultural behavior.
Don't ever join a company based on size but based on culture.
Don't ever join a company based on cashflow but based on culture.
Don't ever join a company based on industrial growth but based on culture.
Cultural organization lead to fulfillment, appreciation and massive growth.
Can culture be developed?
Yes.
- Get a bigger picture.
- Mix with bigger people.
- Connect with a bigger heart.
When we try to analyze this & that on why this & that fail and why this & that doesn't work out, don't waste time on data. Go to the root, the culture is the answer!
