The Ripple Effect

Understand how cultures and groups of people function and how everyone affects the culture of a group, not just the leaders.

One of the biggest blocks to cultural transformation is when team members outsource culture to the most senior leaders. Team members incorrectly believe that only the leader shapes the culture of a team, saying things like, “Culture comes from the top down”.

Research has made incredible breakthroughs in our understanding of how the culture of teams and organisations works. In a nutshell, we have discovered that culture comes from the bottom up as well. In this challenging and competitive business landscape, we can no longer outsource culture to the senior leaders. Every behaviour from every single person sends a cultural ripple that affects the people around them, thus shaping the culture.

This fascinating, humorous and enlightening presentation will completely change the way your team views how they affect the culture of the organisation.
