Leading Culture Change in Global Organizations offers a practical look at the approaches that a set of successful companies have used to implement cultural change within their organizations. In this book, the authors summarize over 20 years of tracking culture transformations in seven different global organizations to illustrate the critical set of dynamics that firms need to manage in order to remain competitive.
- Supporting the front line
- Creating strategic alignment
- Creating one culture out of many
- Exporting culture change
- Building a global business in an emerging market
- Building a global business from an emerging market
This important resource summarizes the insights??from each of the companies studied (GE Healthcare, Vale, Domino’s, Swiss Re, DeutscheTech, Polar Bank, and GT Automotive) as a means to illustrate these important dynamics of culture change.
The authors tracked these organizations and their leaders over time, using the Denison Organizational Culture Survey. The authors summarize the “before and after” results to help focus on the most successful culture changes. Each chapter provides a set of “Lessons for Leaders,” which illustrates how leaders can learn from these examples to drive the kind of organizational change that is needed to give their company a competitive edge.
