Whether you realize it or not, your family has a culture & you might not even know what that culture is.
Countries have cultures - Like Japan
"出る釘は打たれる"
“The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.”
As long as this is the culture you want it is great.
However, if you want some original thoughts to be fostered, perhaps this culture doesn’t allow much for that.
What is Culture?
A Loose Definition - the beliefs and behaviors that govern how people act in an organization
Merriam Webster’s Dictionary - the set of shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterizes an institution or organization
Culture is dynamic… it represents both what brings people together, but also what drives people apart.
It is inclusive of the things that make an organization great, but also the things that serve as drawbacks (no organization or person is perfect, right?)
“Culture is like personality.
In a person, the personality is made up of the values, beliefs, underlying assumptions, interests, experiences, upbringing, and habits that create a person's behavior.
Culture (in an organization) is made up of the values, beliefs, underlying assumptions, attitudes, and behaviors shared by a group of people.
Culture is the behavior that results when a group arrives at a set of—generally unspoken and unwritten—rules for how they will work together.
Your culture is made up of all of the life experiences that each person brings.”
“You can have the best plan in the world, and if the culture isn’t going to let it happen, it’s going to die on the vine,” Mark Fields (former CEO Ford Motor Company)
“Culture eats strategy for breakfast.”
Peter Drucker (?)
I don’t like some things about our culture!
The good news is that we can change our culture.
Kingdom Culture
Kingdom = King’s Domain (where the King resides and is in control)
Righteousness = (G1343) equity (of character or act); justification
Peace=(G1515) to join (lit.
or fig.); by implication - Prosperity
Joy= (G5479) cheerfulness, i.e. calm delight
Rhetorical Question: Is this what you experience here at The Ark -ALL THE TIME - in every situation, at every function, with all the people???
Matt5.7-9
Culture is much less determined by what comes at you (like offense) and much more about who you BE!
You don’t have to be in a position of influence to have influence.
-When we step up, it encourages others to step up as well
Be (embody) the culture you want to see!
Be the change!
Just One Thing
Culture might eat strategy for breakfast, but we determine our culture - Kingdom Culture
BE THE CHANGE!!!
