Culture & Strategy Go Together Like…

July, 2015

Culture without smart Strategy is a great place to hang out, have some fun, and keep things the way they are. Maybe you’re safe and comfortable and you’re not changing the world.

Strategy without strength of Culture is a great plan never executed. Maybe you’re making money but no one experiences themselves as powerful and free in what they do at work.

Now, a Culture of strong individuals who are interdependent in how they produce results, coupled with deliberate thinking and strategy against a big future…that’s where history is being made in the moment.
