Culturally On Plan shares a proven and successful method to lead practical culture change to achieve strategic objectives. It is based on recognizing patterns in human change (for example, its always the other-guy that must change).

 Not only will does this book clearly provide a practical & successful method to lead organizational change, but on a personal level you will also realize pragmatic non-biased ways to explore and improve your own personal traits. (note: the CEO's behavior only affects 2 of 5 categories of personality, therefore the leadership team must change)

 

 

This new method in reaching strategic objectives is therefore centered on creating individual awareness of traits and behaviors and letting the various leaders compare those privately or publically to the desired traits (in reaching the objectives) and developing a Cultural Transformation Plan that reaches the level of practical and proven actions that help in changing traits. This awareness comes in the form of various individual self-assessments in the areas of behaviors, traits and decision-making abilities, to name a few.

1. Properly deploying the strategic objectives 

2. Evolving a Cultural Transformation Plan

 - Assessing the desired traits and behaviors vital in supporting the strategy 

 - Creating awareness of leadership's current traits and behaviors 

 - Identifying opportunities & practical actions to align differences between the desired and current behaviors

 

The book begins by exploring why two-thirds of continuous improvement transformations in the U.S. fail to sustain their results (according to CEO surveys). It then explains how the method can be practically applied resulting in successfully reaching objectives and accomplishing cultural change. Consideration is given to: Intuitive versus Analytic Thinking, Leading without Power, Creating a Learning Organization, and Leading instead of Managing, etc.
