”The shared work culture that we experience as part of the management and organisational culture is largely responsible for the extent to which we can derive positive benefits for ourselves from our work.”
The corporate and leadership culture of an organization is shaped by the corporate reality as well as by the proclaimed and practised values and the fundamental convictions of the individual players. Particularly in processes of change and transformation, it is a crucial management task not only to focus on the formally designable area of an organization at the level of structures and processes, but also to take people seriously in their individual circumstances and to keep an eye on the cultural change that is always necessary. Peter Drucker was already certain decades ago that “culture eats strategy for breakfast” – meaning that every long-term change requires a change in culture.
