In this episode of Transform Talks featuring Tom Krause, author of the book "If Your Culture Could Talk" we discuss the importance of culture in organizational transformation, particularly within the supply chain domain.

Key Points:

  • Culture is the Hidden Impediment: Many supply chain transformation efforts fail due to cultural issues. A nebulous definition of culture makes it difficult to address.
  • Culture as Infrastructure: Tom suggests viewing culture as infrastructure, like information flow and decision-making processes. This allows for measurement and improvement.
  • Quantifying Culture: While traditional surveys are often ineffective, there are ways to measure cultural variables through subgroups and regular feedback mechanisms.  
  • Decision-Making and Cognitive Biases: Analysing decision-making processes helps identify cognitive biases leading to catastrophes.
  • Collective Intelligence and Leadership: Collaborative decision-making that fosters open communication and utilizes a diverse range of perspectives leads to better outcomes.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
