Culture is King: Organizational Culture and It's Impact on Implementation

The justice system is entangled in grueling era of change. Staff in community supervision agencies are coping with multiple and sometimes competing initiatives. We see parallel changes in jails, prisons, courts, and law around us. We are implementing evidence-based practices and programs and innovating to get better results. Along the way, we confront the arduous and sometimes unforgiving elements of our organizations and environments that inhibit our ability to get measurable lasting change. What we have come to realize is that if you fail to diagnose and fully understand organizational culture, even highly resourced change efforts will become its victim. In this presentation we will explore the commanding impact that organizational culture has on our ability to create sustainable and meaningful change. We will introduce a tool designed to help leaders and innovators diagnose and dialogue about their organization’s culture and its impact on efforts.
