Over the past decade, Boards have been held increasingly responsible for setting and monitoring the cultures of the organisations they oversee.
This critically important duty places responsibility on Directors to set the strategic cultural direction of the organisation and to ensure the culture is meaningly measured, monitored and improved.
In this video, Steven Bowman from Conscious Governance talks with Steve Simpson, one of the co-founders of a unique and practical process called UGR’s (Unwritten Ground Rules) which are the foundations for understanding and working with culture within an organisation.
Some of the important questions for Directors include:
• Where should a Board start?
• How do we know what culture we require as a Board?
• What culture do we currently have, and what needs to change?
• How should a Board monitor and measure culture and cultural change?
• How does the Board sustain a focus on culture over time?
And….here is a link to some more detail about a new service available to Boards “Board-led Culture Review and Implementation Plan”
