Shaping Corporate Cultures
“Culture eats strategy for breakfast”. This quote, attributed to Peter Drucker, indicates the enormous importance of corporate culture for organizational success.
According to Harvard Business School, 90% of businesses fail to achieve their strategic goals largely due to the gap between strategic planning and strategy execution. Consequently, the statement “It’s better to have an ordinary strategy well executed than a great strategy poorly executed” makes a lot of sense.
But how to execute a strategy in the best possible way?
While the corporate culture may not be the only answer to that question, it’s certainly a critical one. “Culture is how people behave when no-one is watching.” With organizations increasingly getting digitalized, less and less anyone is actually watching what employees do. Hence, organizational culture has never been more crucial for successful strategy execution.
