Invisible Rules of Organizational Culture

Rules Ready to uncover the cultural patterns that keep your organization stuck?

If so, you can gain greater control over doing the work which, in turn, will create a more positive and productive working environment for everyone!

THE NEED
The invisible rules in an organization are the least apparent and observable aspects of organizational life -- yet being able to negotiate the rules can make or break a career. For women and people of color, learning to be included requires time and savvy know-how. For organizations interested in welcoming diversity, career development and managing change, this seminar is a must!

WHAT ARE THE INVISIBLE RULES?
Invisible rules are the matrix of behaviors that guide group dynamics. They are the accepted unspoken patterns of interaction comprising values, symbols, rituals, and practices that vary from context to context. They are deeply held and often transparent internal images, conversations and mental models about the way the world is supposed to work. When there is a lack of shared meaning, people make up what makes sense to them. People fill in the blanks from past experience to cope with ambiguous and changing environments. Performance breakdowns result from a work setting filled with diverse people with a variety of values and work styles trying to get the job done.
