Culture Values And Unintended Consequences: A Workbook

In this workbook Kathryn Alexander, MA reveals that certain values form systems. That is a group of values clumps together and act together in such a way that if you pick one from the set, then the others just come along for the ride. They fit together and all serve the same purpose. Choose one, you get them all. Sometimes this works, but sometimes it doesn't. These values form the context for decision-making in most organizations - a context that is invisible, but that determines the outcome, to a great extent. By making the invisible visible, Kathryn opens up decisions and relationships to the light of choice, giving us a chance to rethink how we interact and improve our relationships. Culture is an often mysterious aspect of organizations - one that supports either success or failure. Culture makes things easy or impossible, but we rarely see it and seldom understand it. This workbook is designed to allow for insights into an organizations culture in a manner that also indicates leverage points. It offers insight into the hidden dynamics of the tacit values that underline culture, allowing fresh thinking about our own behavior and that of our organization.
