Culture Is The Lifeblood Of An Organization

Culture reflects the values, beliefs, and behaviors that determine how people perform and interact with each other every day.

In some organizations, it is widely discussed and understood by all. In others, it is an unspoken set of rules and norms. Regardless of how it’s communicated, culture plays an enormous role in the performance of organizations.

Korn Ferry’s recent global survey on leadership development explored issues surrounding culture, change, and leadership development.

Join this webcast to learn about:

  • Common organizational drivers to improve culture and the most used strategies to improve culture.
  • Best practices for aligning culture to strategy through leadership development.
  • Key barriers that prevent positive culture change and alignment to the business strategy.
  • The role leaders and leadership development can play in accelerating, reinforcing, and sustaining culture change to accelerate organization performance

Noah Rabinowitz (LinkedIn profile) Senior Partner & Leadership Development, Korn Ferry
