Our Approach
As Peter Drucker said: “Culture eats strategy for breakfast”. So even if we have very good intentions, targets and a good strategy to reach those; if our culture - so called the written and unwritten behaviours and way of working - does not support it, it is not possible to achieve it.
And Kurt Lewin, who is defined as the father of social psychology according to many sources, stated that people's behavior is basically a function of 2 parameters:
Their Personality and the Environment/System they are in.
While we have a very low chance of changing people's personalities;
by changing the system we operate in, we can prepare the ground for the emergence of different behaviors, different culture!
For this very reason, it is critical to clearly define
- The expected outcomes,
- The limiting and supporting working, decision, interaction structures,
and to design the environment, working constellations together with the members of the system.
