Describing Our Organisation’s Culture

About

Time:
The exercise in this module can be completed in about 40 minutes. In total, allowing for discussion, we recommend allowing 60-90 minutes for this module.

Aims:
• To understand what culture is and why it is important.
• To encourage participants to actively consider and discuss the culture of their own organisation.
• To elicit and compare the different perspectives that will exist about the organisation’s existing culture.
• To consider the appropriateness of the organisation’s current culture to drive future business success (optional – for culture change workshops).

Group Size:
This module can be used with groups of up to 15 participants.

Useful For:
Staff at all levels.

You'll Need:
Nothing other than the materials provided.

Notes:
This activity is designed to provoke discussion around existing organisational culture, or to be used as an icebreaker for leadership programmes that contain a session on organisation or team culture.

This activity is also suitable to be run as an internal facilitated session for organisations that are considering or are in the process of a culture change. This activity will encourage contribution and engagement from staff at all levels about current and future culture, and is equally suitable for senior managers and board directors.

You will need to allow the longer time of 90 minutes if using the exercise as part of a culture change session.
