leadership development The leader as cultural role model
 

 
You can be a deliberate or unconscious role model, but either way, you are a role model for your organization's culture. Once this is understood, you can set about changing that culture
  • What you really value is evident from what you pay attention to and emphasize. These are your implied priorities
  • Your values become obvious from what you reward & punish
  • Your true cultural values are reflected in your actual behavior rather than your flowery public statements
  • Your style/ personality/mindset manifests in organization and becomes institutionalized
  • Your pathology becomes organizational pathology and the cultural values become a justification of your stylistic quirks
  • If you have inherited historical cultural baggage, you need to diagnose whether it is adaptive or problematic
