The benefits of Cultural Transformations

When it comes to Agile transformations, the difference in uplift between a process transformation and a cultural transformation can be significant. Process transformations can provide 10%-30% uplift but cultural transformations are 100 to 200% uplift!

Here are several reasons why organisations should opt for a cultural transformation over a structural and procedural-based transformation:

  1. Employee engagement: A cultural transformation is focused on the beliefs, values, and behaviours of the organisation’s employees. This can lead to increased employee engagement and motivation, which in turn can lead to increased productivity, creativity, and innovation.
  2. Employee retention: A positive and supportive culture can improve employee morale and retention, reducing the costs associated with high turnover rates.
  3. Reputation and trust: A culture of accountability and integrity can enhance the reputation and trust of the organisation, leading to increased customer loyalty and business growth.
  4. Competitiveness: A culture of continuous improvement and learning can lead to increased agility and competitiveness in the marketplace.
  5. Inclusivity: A cultural transformation is a more holistic and inclusive process that involves all employees, whereas a typical corporate transformation is often top-down and driven by management.
  6. Alignment: A cultural transformation helps align the employees’ beliefs, values, and behaviours with the goals and objectives of the organisation.
  7. Innovation: A culture that values learning and experimentation can foster innovation and creativity, leading to new products, services, and ways of working that can give an organisation a competitive advantage.
So why aren’t companies focussing on cultural transformations?
