impact of leaders on culture

Effective leaders create high performance organisations - instilling their teams with passion and a strong sense of direction. They align their teams with the organisation's vision and understand that leadership is more than simply managing a process.

how culture affects performance

Organisational culture has a powerful effect on performance – enabling or frustrating an organisation from achieving its goals.

Culture is often described as the way we do things around here.  It comprises the attitudes, assumptions and values which condition the way individuals and the organisation work – the behavioural norms.

Leaders set the tone for an organisation's culture, modelling behaviours and deciding which get rewarded.

about the diagnostics

We use Human Synergistics diagnostics during the course of this workshop.  These describe 12 styles of thinking, behaving and interacting, which are in turn clustered into three general orientations:

  • constructive

  • passive/defensive

  • aggressive/defensive  

The Life Styles Inventory helps individuals understand which behaviours are supporting and which are detracting from effective performance. 

The Organisational Culture Inventory. measures and describes the culture of an organisation in a quantitative, easy to understand way.
