Both Culture and Strategy are Important In firms with strong corporate cultures, managers tend to march energetically in the same direction. The alignment, motivation,  organisation, and control can help performance, but only if the resulting actions fit an intelligent business strategy for the specific environment in which the firm operates.John P. Kotter and James L. Heskett, “Corporate Culture and Performance”, 1992

Personal Alignment of the LeadersWhen leaders change their beliefs and values (1), their behaviours change (2). This influences the culture of the group (3), which in turn changes the behaviours of the group (4).  12Organisational transformation begins with the personal transformation of the leaders. Organisations don’t  transform. People do. 34Wilber’s Four Quadrants
The Leadership Values Assessment is a feedback instrument that compares a leader’s perception of the values he or she believes best describe his or her management/operational style with their colleagues’ perception of their management/operational style. The instrument also compares leader’s perception of their own strengths, and the behaviours that they believe they need to improve or stop, with the assessors’ perceptions and measures personal entropy.Leadership Values Assessment

This influences the culture of the group (3), which in turn changes the behaviours of the group (4). 12Organisational transformation begins with the personal transformation of the leaders.

  • 75. The Leadership Values Assessment is a feedback instrument that compares a leader’s perception of the values he or she believes best describe his or her management/operational style with their colleagues’ perception of their management/operational style. The instrument also compares leader’s perception of their own strengths, and the behaviours that they believe they need to improve or stop, with the assessors’ perceptions and measures personal entropy.Leadership Values Assessment
