Practice Makes Culture: How Welcoming Elephants, Creating Ownership, and Facilitating Daily Practice Transform Organizations
內容簡介
在大多數變革嘗試都宣告失敗時,成功翻轉您的組織。
經過數十年的組織轉型努力,失敗率依然居高不下:超過 70%。究竟缺少了什麼?答案是「人的因素」。
在《實踐形塑文化》一書中,您將發現為何大多數轉型仍以失敗告終,以及如何透過應對其他方法所忽略的核心——真正形塑您組織的情感動態、隱藏論述和日常行為——來確保您的轉型取得成功。
這本實用指南介紹了一個強大的框架,核心聚焦於三個關鍵領域:
•大象(隱含棘手問題):應對變革中的情感層面、理解多元觀點,並解決大多數領導者選擇逃避的艱難對話。
•自主權:確保讓受到變革影響的人能主導變革,才能創造人們真正想要的轉型。
•實踐:透過持續、每日強化理想的行為,將會議轉化為文化變革的強大實踐場域。
無論您是正在協助旗下的同仁應對無所不在的生成式人工智慧(GenAI)、協助扭轉企業或部門的劣勢,還是正在建構一個學習型組織,您都將學到如何創造持久的變革,從而帶來更好的業務成果與更快樂的員工。本書充滿了實用的範本、引導者指南和真實世界的案例研究,將尖端研究轉化為您可以立即執行的具體做法。
Transform your organization when most change efforts fail.
After decades of organizational transformation efforts, the failure rate remains stubbornly high: over 70%. What's missing? The human element.
In Practice Makes Culture, you'll discover why most transformations still fail and how to ensure yours succeeds by addressing what other approaches miss: the emotional dynamics, hidden narratives, and everyday behaviors that truly shape your organization.
This practical guide introduces a powerful framework centered on three critical focus areas:
- Elephants: Address the emotional aspects of change, recognize diverse perspectives, and tackle difficult conversations that most leaders avoid.
- Ownership: Create transformation that people actually want by ensuring those affected by change are the ones steering it.
- Practice: Transform meetings into powerful practice fields for cultural change through consistent, daily reinforcement of desired behaviors.
Whether you're helping your humans grapple with GenAI (everywhere), helping turn around a business or department, or building a learning organization, you'll learn how to create lasting change that delivers both better business results and happier humans. Filled with practical templates, facilitator guides, and real-world case studies, this book translates cutting-edge research into actionable practices you can implement immediately.
Don't settle for another failed transformation. Create a culture where continuous improvement and positive change become organizational habits--where your teams deliver with confidence, quality, and joy
