Overview: Between plans and reality lie years of habits, customs, unwritten ground rules, parochialism, and vested interests: the corporate culture. And make no mistake, a corporate culture exists at every business, no matter how small or large it might be. Culture can not only stop a change effort dead in its tracks, it can also propel it to great heights. Wisdom is understanding the power of culture and how to get it to work for you instead of against you during organizational change. Also, a corporation's culture can be its greatest strength when it is consistent with its strategies. But a culture that prevents a company from meeting competitive threats, or from adapting to changing economic or social environments, can lead to the company's stagnation and ultimate demise.
