In the online course that I teach for ASTD on Developing an Organizational Learning Culture , one of the questions I hear most often is, “How can I change the culture in my company when there is little support from management and our unions resist any change that might affect the work rules?” It took decades to create the culture that currently exists in many of these organizations and any significant change is going to take time, effort and perseverance. .

The culture-change bandwagon appears to be off and running at a fast pace. My fear is that in the rush to change they will overlook the hard work of preparing and supporting employees through the transition. Zappos , the billion dollar online retail shoe company has implemented “ Holacracy ”, an anti-bureaucracy culture that eliminates managers and shifts responsibility for leadership and results to every employee.

I’m currently working on an eLearning module intended to support an organizational culture change initiative. To be clear, the eLearning module isn’t viewed as the primary catalyst for the change; rather, it is one of many components supporting the larger initiative. The goal of the cultural shift is for employees to respond to certain types of situations in a particular way. How will the work environment look and feel different as a result of the culture change?

I’ve finished a quick read of Scaling Up Excellence , am in the midst of Change the Culture, Change the Game , and have Reinventing Organizations and Organize for Complexity (the latter two recommended by my colleague Harold Jarche ) on deck.

A twitter pointer led me to an HBR article arguing that We’re Thinking about Organizational Culture all Wrong. In it, the author argues that it’s fallacious to think that there’s just one organizational culture, , and that all people buy into it. The first is that the cultural values may be interpreted differently. The second is that people may comply with the culture even if they don’t agree with it. Cultures are developed and do change.

A learning culture is a community of workers continuously and collectively seeking performance improvement through new knowledge, new skills, and new applications of knowledge and skills to achieve the goals of the organization. A learning culture is a culture of inquiry; an environment in which employees feel safe challenging the status quo and taking risks to enhance the quality of what they do for customers, themselves, and other stakeholders.

These services are competition for established companies and are changing the industry and guest expectations. The only thing holding companies back from learning at the speed of change is their organizational culture which, for many, is a barrier to learning.

Yet, if I can talk about learning engineering, the desirable properties of cultures for learning, and moves in that direction, aren’t we really talking about socio-cultural engineering? So, if we’re choosing cultural values, and working towards them, both in ways that reflect what science tells us about doing our best, aren’t we really doing such engineering?

The real problem, and the reason I feel we in L&D need to own some of the challenges that exist in our culture, is that sexual harassment training does little to nothing to deter sexual harassment in the workplace. “How effective is this training at preventing sexual harassment?” That training did little to nothing to change the culture around sexual harassment.
