This presentation workshop, led by Dr. Kevin Weitz, focuses on the key issues that organizational leaders need to consider when implementing a new business strategy. The following themes are introduced:  (a) “Millions of Moments” Shape Culture,(b) Organizational culture accelerates strategy implementation (or impedes it), c) How to change culture rapidly, (d) Rapid culture change.

The presentation focused on the following topics:

• How culture is formed in the first place
• Why how your culture was initially formed will not work in the future
• “Millions of moments” – how leaders unknowingly shape culture (for better or worse)
• How and why people behave the way they do – and how these behaviors are changed
• The 5-step process that leaders can use to cultivate new behaviors
• The project management approach for culture change
• Understanding and assessing your culture
