Around the world, even the most successful companies struggle to keep up with constant change. Regardless of their past success, their future may not be what it used to be.

In fact, past successes tend to make people nonchalant when change is most needed. As customers and competitors react to change, markets change, preferences change, and a dominant market position can be lost overnight.

The most common statement we hear from business leaders is that they want their organizations to be more agile. Agile. Responsive. The disruption they feel most often occurs in the digital part of the business, so they often turn to Agile development frameworks like Scrum for inspiration for change.

These frameworks definitely help development teams achieve agility. Still, leaders say they can’t scale change beyond a small number of teams, or the change doesn’t seem sustainable. Agility, or responsiveness as we like it, comes from major changes in corporate culture.

Culture is a simple word that describes a nuanced and complex combination of norms, values and situational responses. Changing culture is not easy and shouldn’t be. Because it acts as a force that binds people together in societies, groups, and even organizations. Leaders communicate culture within an organization – by demonstration, not by dictation or instruction, not by explicit means.

By modeling appropriate and desired behaviors, they shape the culture that guides the organization. To make an organization more responsive – organizational leadership must change.

While top management strive to increase team engagement and ownership, their organizational culture typically rewards compliance and error prevention rather than creativity, self-organization and autonomy, and they live in a relentless limelight, unable to rely on trial and error – the natural means of learning new things.
