Equally beneficial for top management, “Assessing Corporate Culture: A Practical Guide to Improving Board Oversight” from LRN and Tapestry Networks offers a solid framework for boards to attain and preserve a corporate culture that supports the company’s objectives and performance. The five components of the framework are accompanied by practical guidance, suggested action items, and examples.
The robust discussion on numerous ways in which to measure and monitor culture and to enhance the value of commonly used measurement tools (such as employee surveys) may be particularly helpful for management charged with supporting management and board oversight on this topic.
The guide also suggests numerous questions for the board to ask itself and management to inform its understanding of the company’s current culture posture and potential management and oversight gaps and opportunities.
