Re-scooping this under HR Capability/Role. I think it is critical that HR develop Cultural Evolution as a capability, so it can guide, support and enable the organisation to evolve. Building its own adaptive capacity is one of the biggest challenges and opportunities for HR. It is a difficult path, but one that offers significant returns, rewards and of course, growth. |
The shadow versus the espoused culture...
Addressing cultural shadows is quite difficult. The best thing to do is to simply talk about the undiscussables. Talking about the gap between what one says and what they do – and most importantly – why there is a gap or what belief drives the behavior.
A good definition of org culture too - ' culture is organizational anthropology – a system of interactions that governs how work gets done'.
