Strategy
Shifting Organizational Culture at a 200-Person Manufacturing Firm
Overview
What this challenge is about.
Your team will conduct a cultural assessment using surveys and interviews (simulated data provided). You will map the current and desired culture on the Competing Values Framework, identify key cultural gaps, and design a 2-year culture change program with specific initiatives (e.g., leadership development, communication campaigns, structural changes). Success means delivering a comprehensive culture change roadmap with milestones, metrics, and a risk mitigation plan. Constraints: budget is $200,000 over two years, and the CEO wants quick wins in the first 6 months.
