"Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast" : Creating High Performance Businesses by Bringing out the Greatness in People
Peter Drucker coined the phrase, "Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast" because it is highly recognized that culture can make the difference in successful teams and enterprises. Yet, even today, culture can feel soft and fuzzy so leaders often have trouble getting their hands around it. Drucker also stated “the best way to predict the future is to create it” which applies equally to both Strategy and Culture. To grasp the issues and drive change, Excellent Cultures has developed a 4-step process based on hard scientific data, a clear vision on “where we want to go” and firm accountability at both Individual and Team levels.
For over 30 years, companies including Schneider National, Delphi Steering, Toyota and Microsoft have used Excellent Cultures' 4-step process to help their teams change and improve.
Results include:
- Millions in Safety Improvements
- Millions in Cost Reduction
- 5-10% Increase in Productivity
Join fellow CEO Trustees and Excellent Cultures' CMC Dale Hintz for expert insight into business transformation, essential for all CEOs.
