Business evolution continues to have a far-reaching impact on where and how work is done– Talent scarcity amidst increased globalization– Disruptive innovation and improved technology creating new business models– Added competition impacting market share and sustainability
Workforce shifts in the world are redefining traditional work arrangements– Nature of work
- New work models and remote/flexible work arrangements changing how work is done
– Generational shifts - Millennials dominating the workforce, young entrepreneurs and ‘start-up’ boom creating new demands
– Employee expectations on careers, work-life and rewards changing– Baby boomers retiring, creating gaps in the leadership pipeline
The culture code is more strongly defining who stays or leaves an organization in the war for talent!

C H A M P I O N S O F C U L T U R E
What are champions of culture:
• A group of individuals, chosen from all levels of the organization, who are tasked with being the “culture champions”– Have inherent believability and respect– Are natural leaders – not based on position within organization– Will ensure culture is being reflected in all actions across the business
What a champion is not:
• Only senior levels of the organization or HR
• Someone who is a great producer but has a negative attitude
• The party planners

• Embed and enforce your culture, along with vision/values/mission
• Ensure the company’s culture is meeting the needs of the business and employees
• As organizations grow:– They can be catalysts for change– Can develop creative ways to stay true to company culture– Can help institutionalize the culture
• Lastly, they can be a connector
© MERCER 2015 2424
C O N N E C T I O N S
• The champions of culture usually have a natural ability to connect people and ideas– They are great networkers– They know how to use their resources and where to find other resources– They are engaging
• By using their natural skills, they will be able to keep the culture alive but also be a safe place for people to express themselves when they see a need for change
• Remember they will still need the support and guidance of a few key management individuals for their day to day work. Additionally, your Champions need the full support of upper management
© MERCER 2015 25
R E T A I N I N G C U L T U R E D U R I N G T I M E O F G R O W T H
• Define most important pieces of culture– Check in with staff regarding importance– Accommodate new ideas– Make sure culture is in alignment with vision/mission
• Adaptability is key
• As you grow some things will need to change – that is ok
• Embed culture into all areas of measurement (performance appraisals, bonus calculations). You get what you measure!
• Keep lines of communication open, develop more formal ways to communicate as necessary

Southwest • Three simple attributes• Close involvement of the
CEO and C-suite• Embedded in every program • Lived every day in every
action• Strong links to the hiring and
on-boarding process• Employees measured
against the values• Lot of recognition programs
and videos constantly reinforcing the values

• Even if you think you don’t have a corporate culture, you have one.
• Business growth is an offshoot of a robust culture
• Attracting people is important but retaining people is key
• Although Artifacts may be an expectation, they enhance the culture, not create it
• Do what you say…walk the walk to ensure culture remains embedded in the business
• Simply put, each organization is different. Do not be intrigued by what other companies are doing…Be true to your culture, values and mission
