Myths in the People Space

Culture can be a force for good, 
Or the source of friction.

With performance standards as an outcome.

Top Culture Myths
To watch out for.

1.

Culture is a stream of  planned activities and events.

......Culture is an overarching strategy that covers shared values, directs people conduct, enforces ethics, guides daily behaviour and upholds company energy.

2.

A CEO has no role to play in company culture.

......Culture is built in the shadows of its CEO. The values set and exemplified by the CEO becomes the default values of the organisation, over time.

3.

Culture is intangible and its impact cannot be measured.

......Culture can be measured as minutely as one wants, and across a myriad set of data points across the organisation.

4.

Culture has no real impact on business growth.

5.

Companies that last , focus on business alone.

6.

Small companies do not need to invest in culture.

......Culture is the soft power of the organisation. It can amplify results through ease of collaboration and alignment to shared goals or eat into business revenue through lost deals , accepted work quality etc.

......Companies that last build on culture from the onset. Over time, they focus on culture more as business performance becomes defacto.

......Just like a business model and its underlying technical architecture is a must to get right early on, for scalability post. Similarly the cultural precedents need to be set early on and built on as you scale.

7.

Building Culture is an HR's job.

8.

Culture measurement is a set of 'pulse' surveys.

9.

Culture gets built automatically.

......Culture is a day to day shared people experience and is built, by default, by the larger organisation everyday. Maintaining cultural dynamics, vibrancy and enforcement can be shared with the HR.

......Culture measurements through pulse are only one aspect of an 'explicit' measurement. 'Implicit' measurement is much more accurate and requires deeper people and organisational analytics.

......No good culture gets built automatically. Without guiding principles, empowering and enforcing practices, unbridled culture can more harm than good.
