Today it is becoming increasingly clear that the old norms of
doing business are changing. Those truly successful businesses
react quickly, are genuinely concerned for the environment, treat
their people and communities with great respect and consider the
common good. And for those companies that fall down in these areas
this information can be communicated around the world in seconds
via the internet.
Research has shown that highly adaptive cultures outperform rigid
structures by an enormous margin. One study be Harvard Business
Review looking at 10 companies in each f 20 sectors recorded
massive differences. Profit performance for example was quoted as
750 times higher than those with weak/rigid cultures.
Another study in 2008 identified that those companies where less
than 10% of their culture was defined as dysfunctional increased
revenue on average by 33% over 3 years. Those with more than 20%
only increased revenue by 11% on average. Dysfunctional includes
blame, internal competition, manipulation eg paying minimal
wages.
With consumer buying decisions increasingly influenced by company
values, ensuring your values are aligned to societys highest
expectations is essential to performance. And when your values also
reflect the purpose and identity of your employees, there will be
no workplace that they would rather be.
