You often hear people say that the world is getting smaller and there are plenty of examples every day to make us think this. Currently one that is in the news seems to be the number of mergers and acquisitions taking place with European and Far East companies acquiring and merging with British and American ones. Sometimes changing key people at the top of an organisation is all that it needs to create a cultural shift.  Whether the difference in culture is due to international boundaries or organisational ones, cultural issues are not to be ignored if the new organisation is to be a healthy one.
Questions like

“Who are we now?”
“What are our values and beliefs as an organisation?”
“What do we deliver to our customers?”
“In what way?”
 
Will be questions which were part of the fabric of an organisation before and now they will need to be re-answered. And this will be the same for the individuals in the firm.

To see one of the tools we use to help us define the current and desired culture for an organisation, go to the tools section to the Cultural Alignment Wheel.
