Abstract:
Abstract The key business outcomes emanating from this landmark research enable leaders to shape the culture of their organisations fit for purpose in the future. This impact is reflected through the following outcomes, summarised as: Strategic alignment accentuates a joined-up and integrated approach. This act of alignment ensures that interventions are neither randomly deployed nor isolated events. Rather, decisions and actions are focused and help to secure competitive advantage for the organisation. Diversity approached through multiple levels ensures that it is infused and embedded across all organisational activities. Engagement is key: Build relationships. Keep in touch with how people are feeling. Know what is the emotional temperature of your organisation. If employees’ voices are heard, if you as a leader create communities for action and if you forge relationships, then employees will be equally empowered and engaged, which ultimately leads to commitment and is borne out through increased productivity.
