Culture eats strategy for breakfast, as Peter Drucker once said. That's not to belittle the importance of good strategy, however it suggest that without a supporting culture, your strategy execution is in for a hard time.
Another old adage is "Structure follows strategy" which I believe came from
Alfred Chandler - i.e. you should organize yourself around what you are strategically trying to achieve.
Welcome to the PDMA Culture, Organizations & Teams Community discussion board! This is the place to discuss, debate and inform one another around topics relating to all topics of that nature.
So I pose the first question to this new community: is it all about Culture first and foremost, then strategy and only then structure? Share your insights and experiences please!
