Culture and Institutional Reform
| |
| Culture is often described as "the way we do things around here." In fact it is more complex. It is also feelings, underlying beliefs, values, history, and assumptions about an organization. Those are rooted in experiences, stories, and behaviour patterns sometimes decades or centuries old. The culture tells people what is and is not okay. Culture is enduring, difficult to develop or reshape.Despite that, fundamental culture change is necessary for the reforms envisaged in Results for Canadians. |

Inspiring Innovation & Creativity through Business Systems
| |
| Ok, I admit: "I am a big fan of systems, Its all about Systems". It could just be the Mechanical Engineer and Business Analyst coming out in me, but it goes much deeper than that. It is definitely grounded in my recent experiences with systems.
We are surrounded by systems, and our lives revolve around them and rely on them working infallibly. The cars (or motorbikes) we drive, the computers we use and the human bodies we live in, are all brilliantly refined and intricate systems that we use everyday. We expect them to work predictably and consistently every time we use them.

BELIEF SYSTEMS DETERMINE HOW YOU UNDERSTAND LIFE
| |
| We need belief systems in order to filter information and create an understanding of life. These systems serve us well, but they can also get in the way and prevent us from new ways of seeing the world.

Stop Reinventing the Wheel: Create Systems to Save Time and Money
| |
| Most of us run our lives on a handful of systems. Between our smart phones, calendars, and our e-mail inboxes, we have organized ourselves and our time. And if you ever doubt the importance of these systems, recall your panic the last time you couldn’t access your email or your hard drive crashed.
Yet as important as these systems are, most of us don’t take advantage of what systems can do to improve our businesses and simplify our lives. Systems are simply ways of automating or structuring processes so that they can occur systematically without so much thought or attention-and by more than just one person, so that the business can continue to run if the owner takes a vacation.

“Control” At The Top While Permitting Autonomy At The Bottom
| |
| Shortly after Lou Gerstner became CEO of IBM in 1993, he made one of the most significant decisions of his entire career. At a time when many people were calling for the IT giant to decentralize and dismantle into smaller, more flexible companies, Gertsner chose to do the opposite. He instead used IBM’s large size (and subsequent capabilities) to help customers integrate the diverse components of their information technology (IT) systems. In other words, by keeping IBM’s decision-making centralized and integrated, IBM was able to help customers with IT decisions they would have otherwise been forced to make on their own. |

Or do they build an atmosphere of helpfulness, appreciation, and high energy? How do you know? As with beauty, quality, or customer service, reward and recognition are in the eyes of the beholder.
