Organisational Culture Change With Lily Woi
Manage episode 430265782 series 2542873
Good or bad? Positive or toxic? Powerful or incongruent? Culture plays a huge part in our working lives. In L&D we ignore culture at our peril. But what does it mean to understand and change organisational culture? In this episode, former Deloitte Management Consultant, Lily Woi, unpacks this for us and provides insight and guidance on how we can change culture in our organisations.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Culture is about more than behaviour and working practices. Structure and governance both have a significant impact.
- Don´t overcomplicate things, a simpler approach is easier to follow and iterate.
- Keep improving. Change should be ongoing and happen quickly.
- Understanding your culture is the key to shaping it.
- Instead of assuming you understand the culture, observe how people actually behave.
- What is your data telling you about your culture?
- Using consultants helps to overcome not being able to see the wood for the trees and can cut through a lot of internal politics.
- Collective decision-making works best.
- Involve employees in the design phase.
- Using the 4 pillars - mindset, abilities, process, and structure leads to sustainable change.
- Measure the change.
- What has worked in one project is not necessarily going to work for another project. You have to tailor your approach.
BEST MOMENTS
'In my experience, the simplest approaches are more often the most effective.'
'Removing culture from an aspect of L&D is like trying to remove the egg from a cake.'
'I tend to ask a lot of annoying questions… to understand why, what´s really going on.'
'The approach that I use for one company would not work for my next company or client.'
