| culture survey example questions: People Risk Management Keith Blacker, Patrick McConnell, 2015-04-03 People Risk Management provides unique depth to a topic that has garnered intense interest in recent years. Based on the latest thinking in corporate governance, behavioural economics, human resources and operational risk, people risk can be defined as the risk that people do not follow the organization's procedures, practices and/or rules, thus deviating from expected behaviour in a way that could damage the business's performance and reputation. From fraud to bad business decisions, illegal activity to lax corporate governance, people risk - often called conduct risk - presents a growing challenge in today's complex, dispersed business organizations. Framed by corporate events and challenges and including case studies from the LIBOR rate scandal, the BP oil spill, Lehman Brothers, Royal Bank of Scotland and Enron, People Risk Management provides best-practice guidance to managing risks associated with the behaviour of both employees and those outside a company. It offers practical tools, real-world examples, solutions and insights into how to implement an effective people risk management framework within an organization. |
| culture survey example questions: Organization Collaborative Culture Survey & Report Nancy Schill, 2014-03-27 We have witnessed an organizational paradigm shift in the last few decades. The previous traditional business models don't sustain the conditions needed for the adaptability, interdependence, and innovation that are essential for organizations today. Success in organizations this century will be achieved only through strong collaborative communities. In response to these changes, we wanted to create an affordable tool that anyone could use to give their organization a collaborative solution.

If you are looking to increase and drive shared values, positivity, integrity, productivity, and cooperation at work, then this is the tool for you. This stand-alone self-report will reflect the culture of your unique organization. It is based on the theory that culture in the workplace is the dynamic result of established norms within the organization, the influence and support of leadership, cooperation and communication within teams, and also the motivation and focus of individuals. The values, attitudes, actions, and the environment all influence the leaders, teams, and individuals and practices of the organization. These factors are not only being affected by the organization's culture, they are also creating it. This easy-to-use Survey & Report provides users the assessment tools and practical techniques to improve and maintain a collaborative culture in order to stay relevant in the ever-changing world today.

| culture survey example questions: Net Promoter - Implement the System Maurice Fitzgerald, 2017-04-20 The Net Promoter System is the most popular improvement system on the planetHere's why: It is easy to understand, and you can learn from those who have done it before.You know your company can perform better. You want to make it happen. And fast. Your colleagues and friends seem to have great suggestions. You have lots of ideas. Too many ideas. Which ones will make a difference? The customer research you're getting is just not delivering the goods. There are lots of improvement methods out there. Too many. You need a better solution, one that's as credible as it is simple - You need NPS. A charming but worried colleague... I remember this one colleague, a woman whose many charms could slay most men. But after a particular marketing meeting she was visibly very distressed. We had measurements on all these factors, she told me, but the CEO blew me out of the water. Convince me, he had apparently said to her, that any of your 40 or so scales actually matter to our largest customers. Without NPS she had started from the wrong place, and was lucky to keep her job. I get it, a CEO at a different firm told me about NPS. Finally, there's one figure that tells me what I really need to know - are we about to grab their customers, or are they about to come for ours? NPS is easy to understand and explainThe Net Promoter System is the most widely adopted measurement and improvement system on the planet. There is a reason. The reason is its simplicity. It is simple to understand. It is simple to explain. Indeed, there is lots of information about NPS on the web and elsewhere. Too much information. Not enough practical advice. I will help you to understand which methods work and which do notWhich implementation methods work? Which do not? How should you communicate and execute? How can you avoid mistakes others have made? How can you engage customers in your voyage and make them enthusiastic and loyal? How can you move them from saying they will recommend your company to actually doing so? Great advice with great illustrationsNet Promoter - Implement the System answers these questions and many more. The advice has two great qualities: it is full of implementation stories from a recognized expert, and it is accompanied by entertaining drawings from a recognized artist. Maurice implemented NPS when he was VP of Customer Experience at HP and HPE Software. He also managed the largest NPS community on the internet for six months in 2017: The Net Promoter System Forum on LinkedIn with over 23,000 members. Maurice has been a frequent guest on Rob Markey's Net Promoter System Podcast, with over 10,000 listeners. Peter has a doctorate in cognitive psychology from Oxford, and has exposed his art in three countries. His illustrations make many points memorable, and his knowledge has helped work many principles of behavioral economics into the book. Updated in April 2018Bain updated the employee NPS concepts in December 2017. I also updated my research on the relationship between employee and customer satisfaction in March 2018. Episode / transaction NPS descriptions needed improvement. All this means an updated version of the book is available in Kindle and print formats since April 2nd 2018. So here you have it - 'Net Promoter: Implement the System' - a straightforward, very readable book. Ask yourself this question (punk*), why would you not want to read a book that could save your job and / or your firm? You are now just a click or two away from all this knowledge. You know what to do next. (Go ahead. Make my day.*) *Dirty Harry, of course |

| culture survey example questions: The Culture Engine S. Chris Edmonds, 2014-09-22 An organizational North Star, codifying valued behaviors for optimal performance The Culture Engine shows leaders how to create a high performing, values aligned culture through the creation of an organizational constitution. With practical step-by-step guidance, readers learn how to define their organization's culture, delineate the behaviors that contribute to greater performance and greater engagement, and draft a document that codifies those behaviors into a constitution that guides behavior towards an ideal: a safe, inspiring workplace. The discussion focuses on people, including who should be involved at the outset and how to engage employees from start to finish, while examples of effective constitutions provide guidance toward drafting a document that can actualize an organization's potential. Culture drives everything that happens in an organization day to day, including focus, priorities, and the treatment of employees and customers. A great culture drives great performance, and can help attract and retain great talent. But a great culture isn't something that evolves naturally. The Culture Engine is a guide to strategically planning a culture by compiling the company's guiding principles and behaviors into an organizational constitution. Decide which behaviors and attitudes are desired in the organization Secure leader commitment to planning, drafting, and implementing the document Learn the most effective way to socialize the draft statement and get everyone on board Model desired behaviors to boost employee engagement throughout the process Organizational culture is not an amorphous thing – it comes down from the top, inspired and exemplified by the leadership. It can steer a company up or down, keep it on mission or force it off-course. For an organization to fulfill its potential, the culture must be on-point, truly reflecting the heart of the company from leaders to team members across the company. The Culture Engine helps leaders define the playing field, pushing performance to the next level. |

| culture survey example questions: Comparative Civic Culture Laura A. Reese, Raymond A. Rosenfeld, 2016-05-23 The quest for a theoretical framework for understanding urban policy-making has been a recurring focus of research into local governments. Civic culture is a means for understanding how municipal policy-makers weigh the interests of different groups, govern the local community, frame local goals, engage in decision-making, and ultimately select and implement public policies. While it seems that culture 'matters' in local policy making, how to measure culture in a valid and replicable fashion presents a significant challenge which the authors address in this book. They present their findings of a large multi-city research project to explore the nature of civic culture in cities in the US and Canada. The focus of their analysis is on three overarching 'systems' of community power system, the community value system, and the community decision-making system. The authors address a number of questions around the nature of civic culture and the relationships between the three systemic elements of civic culture, to refine and apply a more sophisticated theory of urban policy-making. |

| culture survey example questions: A Year in White C. Lynn Carr, 2016-01-19 In the Afro-Cuban Lukumi religious tradition—more commonly known in the United States as Santería—entrants into the priesthood undergo an extraordinary fifty-three-week initiation period. During this time, these novices—called iyawo—endure a host of prohibitions, including most notably wearing exclusively white clothing. In A Year in White, sociologist C. Lynn Carr, who underwent this initiation herself, opens a window on this remarkable year-long religious transformation. In her intimate investigation of the “year in white,” Carr draws on fifty-two in-depth interviews with other participants, an online survey of nearly two hundred others, and almost a decade of her own ethnographic fieldwork, gathering stories that allow us to see how cultural newcomers and natives thought, felt, and acted with regard to their initiation. She documents how, during the iyawo year, the ritual slowly transforms the initiate’s identity. For the first three months, for instance, the iyawo may not use a mirror, even to shave, and must eat all meals while seated on a mat on the floor using only a spoon and their own set of dishes. During the entire year, the iyawo loses their name and is simply addressed as “iyawo” by family and friends. Carr also shows that this year-long religious ritual—which is carried out even as the iyawo goes about daily life—offers new insight into religion in general, suggesting that the sacred is not separable from the profane and indeed that religion shares an ongoing dynamic relationship with the realities of everyday life. Religious expression happens at home, on the streets, at work and school. Offering insight not only into Santería but also into religion more generally, A Year in White makes an important contribution to our understanding of complex, dynamic religious landscapes in multicultural, pluralist societies and how they inhabit our daily lives. |

| culture survey example questions: Management Research, International Business, and National Culture Sunil Venaik, Paul Brewer, David Midgley, 2023-06-27 Why do different groups of people behave in different ways when dealing with the common challenges of human life? The answer often lies in their cultural attitudes, values, and consequent behaviours. The study of human culture has been deemed a key contribution to understanding human life for many centuries. Explanations and descriptions of cultural characteristics abound, but in the field of business, none have been more influential and warmly embraced than those developed by Geert Hofstede and the GLOBE group. These models of national culture, which characterise Japanese, Americans, French, and may other nationalities in terms of common characteristics such as collectivism, masculinity, and power distance, are most widely cited and applied in business research, teaching, and recommendations for practice. But this seminal work needs a careful reality check. The authors of this book point out a range of problems associated with the Hofstede and GLOBE national culture measures which bring into question their accuracy and usefulness in meeting the expectations of management culture researchers and students. This book explains in detail why the measures developed by Hofstede and GLOBE are of dubious validity and why they should be viewed with caution by those looking for answers to the complex questions of culture. |

| culture survey example questions: Popular Culture, Political Economy and the Death of Feminism Penny Griffin, 2015-06-05 While some have argued that we live in a ‘postfeminist’ era that renders feminism irrelevant to people’s contemporary lives this book takes ‘feminism’, the source of eternal debate, contestation and ambivalence, and situates the term within the popular, cultural practices of everyday life. It explores the intimate connections between the politics of feminism and the representational practices of contemporary popular culture, examining how feminism is ‘made sensible’ through visual imagery and popular culture representations. It investigates how popular culture is produced, represented and consumed to reproduce the conditions in which feminism is valued or dismissed, and asks whether antifeminism exists in commodity form and is commercially viable. Written in an accessible style and analysing a broad range of popular culture artefacts (including commercial advertising, printed and digital news-related journalism and commentary, music, film, television programming, websites and social media), this book will be of use to students, researchers and practitioners of International Relations, International Political Economy and gender, cultural and media studies. |

Magazine Starting in 1997, Bob Chapman and Barry-Wehmiller have pioneered a dramatically different approach to leadership that creates off-the-charts morale, loyalty, creativity, and business performance. The company utterly rejects the idea that employees are simply functions, to be moved around, managed with carrots and sticks, or discarded at will. Instead, Barry-Wehmiller manifests the reality that every single person matters, just like in a family. That’s not a cliché on a mission statement; it’s the bedrock of the company’s success. During tough times a family pulls together, makes sacrifices together, and endures short-term pain together. If a parent loses his or her job, a family doesn’t lay off one of the kids. That’s the approach Barry-Wehmiller took when the Great Recession caused revenue to plunge for more than a year. Instead of mass layoffs, they found creative and caring ways to cut costs, such as asking team members to take a month of unpaid leave. As a result, Barry-Wehmiller emerged from the downturn with higher employee morale than ever before. It’s natural to be skeptical when you first hear about this approach. Every time Barry-Wehmiller acquires a company that relied on traditional management practices, the new team members are skeptical too. But they soon learn what it’s like to work at an exceptional workplace where the goal is for everyone to feel trusted and cared for—and where it’s expected that they will justify that trust by caring for each other and putting the common good first. Chapman and coauthor Raj Sisodia show how any organization can reject the traumatic consequences of rolling layoffs, dehumanizing rules, and hypercompetitive cultures. Once you stop treating people like functions or costs, disengaged workers begin to share their gifts and talents toward a shared future. Uninspired workers stop feeling that their jobs have no meaning. Frustrated workers stop taking their bad days out on their spouses and kids. And everyone stops counting the minutes until it’s time to go home. This book chronicles Chapman’s journey to find his true calling, going behind the scenes as his team tackles real-world challenges with caring, empathy, and inspiration. It also provides clear steps to transform your own workplace, whether you lead two people or two hundred thousand. While the Barry-Wehmiller way isn’t easy, it is simple. As the authors put it: Everyone wants to do better. Trust them. Leaders are everywhere. Find them. People achieve good things, big and small, every day. Celebrate them. Some people wish things were different. Listen to them. Everybody matters. Show them. |
