Organisational transformation starts with ambition. The CEO sees the destination clearly, the strategy is set, and the message is out. But quite often, there's a hitch: the Executive Team isn't fully aligned.
Even when leaders recognise the need for it, getting others on board with change can be a different matter entirely. Executive teams might push for transformation, but if they don’t acknowledge the emotional side of change, they risk passive resistance or outright sabotage.
If Drucker was right, if culture eats strategy for breakfast, what does that mean for organisations that don’t pay attention to it? Have you ever wondered why your strategy isn’t understood by employees, or isn’t being delivered? The good news is there is plenty you can do to influence it.
