Creating a culture is complicated.
It comes with so many elements:
Safety
Housekeeping
Lean
Intentionality which leads to us working daily with discipline on the factors we can impact Customer satisfaction Teamwork Improvement Change responsive as compared to reactive.
It also comes down to so many units applying those elements. We have hundreds of teams of 2-10 people. That’s hundreds of cultures being formed to fit in with the larger whole.
That takes hundreds of leaders. It takes hundreds of people caring and being accountable.
One small group “not getting” the culture we are trying to develop, can take down the culture of an entire plant. Or company. It’s that simple in our complex world.
So, cultures achieved come from each person and each small team being accountable to understand and to do his and their job.
