CRASHING THE CULTURE CLUB

Take culture

back.

Academia and influencers took culture from the business. We are stealing it back.

WHY CULTURE CHANGE FALLS FLAT

Five reasons it never sticks.

Most culture programmes are well meant. You don’t need a programme, you need a system.

01

Rhetoric wins.

Culture change is long on inspiration and short on impact.

02

Everyone has a lens.

Each camp says its own idea is the most important.

03

Four good ideas.

Accountability, psychological safety, feedback and growth mindset all matter. None is the main thing.

04

One size fits nobody.

You don’t want sales to behave like compliance.

05

Culture sits apart.

It gets its own programme, away from how the work actually works.

It’s not Culture.

It’s Cultures.

THE ANSWER

Start with the system.

YOUR SYSTEM

shapes your culture.

YOUR CULTURE

shapes your system.

Everything is connected.

Everything adapts over time.

Design for that.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

Four ideas you won’t find elsewhere.

An open-plan floor from above, different teams working in different ways, joined by an orange thread.

The no-lens approach.

Start with no favourite lens, so the real issue shows before a fix is chosen.

Cultures, plural.

Different work and different teams need different behaviours. Work with that, not against it.

System and culture together.

Change one and you change the other, so work on both at once.

Aimed at your impact.

For AI. For disruption. For results. Orchestrate culture for the outcome you need.

WHAT YOU GET

A culture that works for the work.

Behaviours that fit.

Each part of the business behaving the way it needs to.

A loop that reinforces.

Culture and system pulling the same way.

Change that keeps going.

A business that adapts as it goes, rather than relaunching every year.
