Designing Organizational Culture: aligning behaviors and values to shape the future.
Your company culture is the invisible operating system that determines the success or failure of every strategy. Often, organizations endure their culture instead of designing it. The Behaviors and Values Toolbox is the tool for mapping your organization's DNA and ensuring it is consistent with the futures you want to realize.
Don't just declare values: identify the actual behaviors that fuel them or, conversely, act as hidden barriers to change. This tool is a prerequisite for defining your Purpose and will allow you to transform corporate culture from a static limit into a dynamic engine of innovation and authentic competitiveness.
Values are declared, behaviors are practiced. Design today the culture capable of sustaining tomorrow's futures.
How to use the Behaviours – Values Toolbox
Fase 1: Map real behaviors (The Mirror)
Work as a group to identify the character traits and daily actions that define your team's success with stakeholders and as a working group. Ask everyone to declare and explain the core behaviors that characterize the organization in its actual activities, without filters.
Fase 2: Extract authentic values (Deep DNA)
Use the Values Canvas to group the emerging behaviors for semantic coherence. From these groupings, extract the deep values that fuel them: only then will your corporate values be rooted in reality and not just in external communication.
Fase 3: Strategic Alignment.
Evaluate whether current values and behaviors are ready to sustain the challenge of new markets. This step will allow you to identify what to preserve and what to evolve to ensure continuity and relevance over time.
