Organizations that align strategy with culture are more likely to achieve their strategic goals
“Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” So goes the famous quote attributed to renowned management consultant Peter Drucker. The flaw in the statement is that it suggests culture and strategy are competitors. Rather, they are partners. Culture and strategy rely on each other and work together to enable development, execution, and realization of an organization’s objectives.
High-engagement cultures are linked to increased sales, profitability, and quality. Yet, despite its significance, an optimized culture remains an elusive, often overlooked element in many organizations.
