instead hold practical problem solving sessions and pilots Integrate HR’s ‘typical remit’ with culture efforts • Tie performance management to the changing culture and strategy - create a sense of accountability and motivate high performers • Attract and retain top talent with employee value propositions linked to target behaviors • Align training and career development with underlying culture evolution efforts Recognize the critical role of leaders & mgmt • Ensure the executive team own the culture and the people agenda – get their endorsement and ensure transparency; work with business leaders and not beside them • Help leaders see and feel consequences of their behavior; collaborate on symbolic actions • Use leadership development to focus on target behaviors and networking • Introduce best-in-class corporate governance processes Work on behavior at multiple levels • Design the organization to mobilize elements of informal network • Widen ME best practice in relationship networking to locate/ leverage your key networkers • Focus on engagement, motivation and pride in the day to day work at all levels Utilize rich two-way strategic communications • Build employee voices into efforts - tap key change agents and “motivational managers” • Avoid the trap of change happening “to” employees as opposed to “with” and “by” them Recognize that culture is fundamentally local • Balance the need for homogeneity with the reality - and strength - of diversity • Keep regional and functional sub-culture in mind for new roles and responsibilities, particularly given the diversity within ME companies Booz & Company February 2011 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum 17 Q&A Booz & Company February 2011 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum 18 Appendix Booz & Company February 2011 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum 19 While culture interventions look different given a particular context, we favor a rigorous culture intervention framework Culture Intervention Framework 3 Business Objectives 1 Culture FROM and TO Understand the culture today and tomorrow, and identify cultural gaps and cultural strengths 2 Critical Few Behaviors Booz & Company February 2011 Culture Intervention Program Design a tailored culture intervention program using formal and informal levers, focused on changing critical behaviors (mindset/culture change will follow) Formal Approaches Informal Approaches Identify the critical few behaviors that will make the biggest difference toward your cultural aspiration 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt Outcomes People change behaviors, mindsets follow Improved business results are evident Organization sustains the change over time Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum 20 Remember that your culture includes some behaviors to capitalize on, and others to counter-balance CLIENT EXAMPLE Make the Most Of … Counter-Balance … Speed Cost Focus Entrepreneurial Spirit All “Good News” Committed People Booz & Company February 2011 Decentralisation 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt Middle Management Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum Internal Focus 21 Leaders at all levels have a role to play in motivating performance and change Leadership Needed at Each Level Senior Leaders Booz & Company February 2011 Champion, direct, and align behavior change priorities Demonstrate visible commitment by getting involved in the work formally and informally Learn from others down the line and visibly model changes Middle Management Serve as problem solvers and enable scaling through wellstructured and actively networked roles Need to be willing to change their ways and be part of the solution Front Line Leaders Engage individuals in highly personalized way, creating emotional commitment Translate top-down messages into messages that resonate with the front line 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum 22 Organizations that use both formal and informal organizing elements together are most successful Top Leaders Vision Commitment Values Integrating Mechanisms Pride Emotional Commitment Motivation Alignment Rational Compliance Strategy Purpose Team Members Booz & Company February 2011 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum 23 Pride-builders and other exemplars can positively influence behaviors and beliefs, fueling viral change Pride-Builders and Other Exemplars PrideBuilders Pride-builders draw on the unique sources of motivation of those with whom they work, building pride in the work itself and producing great results Fast Zebras get things done informally without being devoured by “formal predators.” They adapt to changes quickly just like a zebra at a watering hole on the savannah “Fast Zebras” Change agents want to make a difference in how the broader organization works, take risks to champion causes they believe in and act beyond the boundaries of their role Influencers Agent diffuses new behaviors Change Agents Change Exemplars Peer is not affected Influencers are disproportionately influential in shaping the attitudes and perspectives of a community of people C Peer imitates behaviors and becomes new agent of change New behaviors Booz & Company February 2011 11-0216 Booz.Culture Evolution.STC HC Forum.for pdf.ppt A Prepared for VIVA/ STC Group Human Capital Forum B Peer imitates behaviors Social links between colleagues 24
