Infographic:
▪ 50,000 Google searches/month for “what is
innovation?” and “innovation definition”
▪ Innovation as a buzzword that means different things
to different people – and in some cases is losing
meaning like quality or efficiency
▪ Views of different leaders

9 common values from the definitions
1. Have an idea
2. Execute the idea
3. Address a real challenge
4. Add value to the company or organization
5. Add value to the customer or constituent
6. A different way of thinking
7. Move organization to the front of the line
8. Address new markets or opportunities
9. Hmm, maybe nailing a definition is not that important

@Ann_McMullan @FETC #FETC
Culture is the process of “sense-making” in organizations.
Sum of rituals and values which serve as the glue to integrate members into an
organization.
Culture is a carrier of meaning. Not only “what is” but “why is.”
Culture is the organization’s immune system.
An organization is a living culture that can adapt to reality as fast as possible.
Organizational Culture
@SpeakUpEd
Creating and Leading a Culture of Innovation in Today’s Schools

@Ann_McMullan @FETC #FETC
Software for the mind.
A home court feeling.
Culture is a social narcotic – we feel good about belonging to a group.
For a nonprofit, culture is your DNA – it defines how you operate.
Defining (or redefining) organizational culture is a process.
Organizational Culture

Why define culture?
If we can define what our culture is, we can diagnose problems and chart new paths to greater innovation and effectiveness.

Organizational Culture
Is that really possible?
Agreement that organizational culture is
important, but little consensus on what it
actually is!

Organizational Culture
Edgar Schein Professor Emeritus, Work and Organization Studies
MIT Sloan School of Management
“Organizational culture is a pattern of shared basic assumptions
that the group learned as it solved its problems of external
adaptation and internal integration, and it worked so well that it is
taught to new members as the correct way to perceive, think and
feel in relation to the organization’s problems and challenges.”
@SpeakUpEd

@Ann_McMullan @FETC #FETC
Culture comes from the way we talk and treat each other and from the
expectations we set for each other. (New Solutions for Nonprofits, 2015)
Board/organizational culture focuses often on one important dynamic –
making small group decisions.
To do that boards/organizations need:
❖ Candid communications
❖ Belief in healthy conflict
❖ Balance task and process – how we are doing + what are we doing
(PMA Consulting, LLC, 2015)

IMPACT ON ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
4 key enablers that help to build a culture of trust, candor and respect:
❖ Tone of respect and openness from the top to the bottom
❖ Agreement on optimal norms of communications
❖ Team members get to know each other – and learn how to communicate with each
other
❖ Exercise active discussion, dialogue and debate – to inform the right decisions that
need to be made by the organization

“The world is not just rapidly changing,” adds
Dov Seidman, “it is being dramatically reshaped
– it is starting to operate differently” in many
realms all at once. “And this reshaping is
happening faster than we have yet been able to
reshape ourselves, our leadership, our
institutions, our societies, and our ethical
choices.”

“Indeed, there is a mismatch between the change in the
pace of change and our ability to develop the learning
systems, training systems, management systems, social
safety nets, and government regulations that would
enable citizens to get the most out of these accelerations
and cushion their worst impacts. This mismatch, as we
will see, is at the center of much of the turmoil roiling
politics and society in both developed and developing
countries today. It now constitutes probably the most
important governance challenge across the globe.”
