This McKinsey article highlights the crucial role of inclusive cultures in boosting employee engagement, retention, performance, and productivity. Strongly aligned and inclusive cultures differentiate exceptional organizations from good ones. At Becoming Better Together, our work in cultural transformation is based on the five power moves McKinsey identifies. With over 30 years of experience, we've found that attending to people’s humanity is key. Highly aligned cultures provide a consistent reference point, and when cultures change, this point of reference shifts, causing uncertainty and discomfort. Building an inclusive culture requires acknowledging people's full humanity, including their uncertainties during change. The reason over 70% of change efforts fail is due to neglecting people's basic humanity. Ignoring their lived experiences and responses to change is an oppressive attempt at compliance, undermining any other strategies. Prioritize people and purpose, and everything else will fall into place. https://lnkd.in/deiMWsSn Tracey Greene-Washington Indigo Innovation Group Alli Myatt The Equity Practice Carrie Ellis Celestial Consulting, LLC Kathryn Evans Stephen Pham

“Leaders must think holistically about redesigning workplace culture—that is, identifying and modifying the behaviors and actions required to meet their strategy goals but doing so in a way that allows employees to bring their whole authentic selves to work, achieve peak performance, and stay balanced during crises and disruptions. Research shows that failure to do so may result in absenteeism, lower engagement, and decreased productivity and grit”.
